Ultra Challenges

Take on a 100km, 50km or 25km challenge in one of sixteen locations across the UK and help save men’s lives.

Take on an Ultra challenge event organised by Action Challenge. Walk, jog or run at your own pace, and choose from 16 events and a variety of distances. Raise money for Prostate Cancer UK to fund lifesaving research and support for men and their families when they need it most.

Are you a regular walker or a seasoned trekker? Maybe you’re a marathon runner wanting to 'up' your distance? Whether it's along magnificent coastal scenery, or in stunning open countryside there's plenty of choice to suit you.

Prostate Cancer UK is an official partner on the 2024 Ultra Series, so you’ll get a 50% discount on the ‘Full Sponsorship’ registration fee when signing up to support us.

Why take on an Ultra Challenge?

“On a personal note - do it! It will totally change your life! I started walking ultra-challenges back in 2014 with my best friend and it was one of the most positive things I have done! It gives you a real confidence boost. You meet such a great bunch of people at these events and everyone really supports each other. If you are going to do it, then do it for a worthwhile cause like Prostate Cancer UK to get more men talking!”

Claire, Ultra Challenge fundraiser, 2021

In 2021, Claire took on eight Ultras (yes, eight Ultras!) to help beat prostate cancer. Join Claire and hundreds of others and take on an Ultra for Prostate Cancer UK in 2024 to help fund lifesaving research and support for thousands of men and their families affected by the disease.
