The Ramblers East Dorset Group are once holding Purbeck Plod challenge again this year
Taking place on Sunday, June 23, the walk or run consists of a 25-mile route, open to both walkers and runners, and two shorter routes of 16-mile and 12-miles for walkers only.
All routes start from Swanage Pier and continue westwards along the South West Coast Path.
An event spokesman explained: “The 25-mile walk/run goes as far as Kimmeridge where it turns inland and returns to Swanage over the Purbeck Hills, passing through Corfe Castle. The 16-mile walk turns inland near Chapman’s Pool then continues to Corfe Castle to join the other walk.
“And the 12-mile walk turns in to Worth Matravers and continues back to Swanage along the Priest’s Way.”
Cold drinks and snacks are available at most check points and food will be provided at the finish along with a timed certificate.
