The “Since 1664” Yomp is a unique charity endurance challenge of epic proportions. Departing from Abbey Gardens, next to King Alfred’s
Statue in the centre of Winchester dawn (0500) on Saturday 30 Apr 2022 and following the official 100-mile (160K) route, with the minor detours to get to suitable scran points, we finish just beyond the bottom of Beachy Head after Yomping a full 166.4 KMs.

Be under no illusion that this is “just” a stroll in the park, even though
it literally is a stroll of the whole of the stunningly beautiful South Downs National Park!  The climb (and decent) is the equivalent of 40% of Mount Everest but over 100 miles and in 36 hours. 

This charity challenge is that tough that no serving or former Royal Marine who has attempted it has suggested it is easier than any of the famous Royal Marines Commando Tests. 

As you read this I'm well into my training for the yomp guided by my friend an coach Alex who is a former Royal Marine Commando (https://gribbenpt.co.uk/).
