Thousands of runners and walkers have taken part in the The Chiltern 50 Ultra Challenge - part of the UK’s biggest and best series of treks and trail runs for a wide range of ages, fitness and experience levels which raises £10+ million a year for charities!
You’ll get a fully signed route with arrows, free snacks and drinks, a t-shirt, medal and glass of fizz to make your active fundraising challenge successful and rewarding! If you’re up for a 10K charity challenge this year, make it The Chiltern 10K!
The Chiltern 10K is fun, safe, and rewarding and you can take it on at your pace as an individual, or as a team of friends or family. It's ideal as a charity fundraiser and children are welcome too. You’ll get full support, there’s a discounted finishers meal – and you’ll enjoy a great day out!
You’ll be amazed how much you can raise as friends and family will recognise and support your courageous endeavours! All fundraising goes directly to your charity via an online JustGiving page.

You need to create your fundraising page on JustGiving within 48 hours of registering for your challenge. Then you can start your fundraising by sharing your page online with your friends and family.
As long as you’re all fundraising for the same charity, you can create a team fundraising page on JustGiving. You will still have to reach the combined total fundraising amount as the target is per person, not per team.
Speak to your charity about any worries. They are the experts and will offer you support, materials and inspiration throughout.
Remember only 50% of the target has to be reached 3 weeks before the challenge meaning you’ve got time after the challenge to impress everyone with your achievement and keep on fundraising.
If you don’t reach the fundraising target, there are alternative options. You can always change to a self-funded place and still take part in the challenge.
Once you've got your charity place, your details will be passed to the charity and you will hear from them within 14 days.
The support and friendliness of the staff and volunteers everywhere has been amazing - obviously all rest stops and walking through the finish line. Also the night-time route signage with the glow sticks was AMAZING!!
I love the level of support from everyone. There’s a great atmosphere and that’s part of why I love doing these challenges. My friend now loves them too!
