Spitfire Scramble

Spitfire Scramble London's ONLY 24-hour off-road race. Run solo, run in teams, run where legends were made. Come and run where legends were made.
(208)

The Spitfire Scramble will be the only 24-hour off-road running event in London. Runners can enter as pairs, teams of three to five, six to eight or as solo competitors. Tackling the six mile loop of tarmac, trails, tracks and woods, your endurance and teamwork will be put to the test. Hornchurch Country Park now sits on the site of RAF Hornchurch, a key base during the Battle of Britain from whic

h countless Spitfire missions were launched. The course will bear echoes of the park's history as runners pass pill boxes from which war heroes defended their base. This is an opportunity to run in a truly unique place, with views of rolling fields and the London skyline combining to bring you 24 hours of off road action in the shadow of history.

“24 hours? Absolutely no chance.”

We hear it a lot.

But here's the thing about the Spitfire Scramble: nobody says you have to run for 24 hours.

Run a lap. Rest. Eat. Sleep. Cheer on your teammates. Go again.

Two laps or 22. Solo, pair or team.

Your Scramble is exactly that. Yours.

It's amazing how quickly one weekend can become a memory.

A few weeks ago we were celebrating finish lines, sunrise laps and the incredible atmosphere that makes the Spitfire Scramble so special.

Now, while you're reliving 2026, we're already working on 2027.

The conversations have started. The planning is underway. We've got some exciting ideas for race weekend that we can't wait to share when the time is right.

The first milestone is securing the 2027 date. As soon as that's confirmed, we'll announce when entries will open.

If you'd like to be first in line when that happens, make sure you're on the 2027 Priority List. The link is in our bio.

Here's to the next chapter. ✈️
