About the Clarendon Marathon
This point-to-point English trail marathon links two cathedral cities along the Clarendon Way. Transport and bag-transfer options support the remote start-to-finish layout, while early starts accommodate walkers and slower runners.
Course
The route crosses chalk tracks, farm paths, woodland, and open fields between Salisbury and Winchester. Frequent short climbs and uneven ground accumulate, so the course is tougher than its individual hills suggest.
Race-day weather
October can bring crisp, dry running or sustained rain. Chalk and grass become slick when wet, and exposed ridges can feel colder in wind than the valley start areas.
