Description
It’s Tough! But from 2024 it has become a little easier!
Gone is the camping – we now have accommodation with comfy beds.
The Severn Challenge is without doubt one of the toughest races in the UK. Over the last seven years the finisher rate is around 26%. Compare those statistics with other events that promote themselves as “the toughest” and then decide if this is for you.
