Camino Ultra London- Lea Valley Races Finish Line Party!
The best task! Finish line friends for tired runners!
Getting there
For this session we're going to meet at the task, so you'll need to make your own way there. We encourage you to walk, run, or cycle to do so!
About this session
One of my personal highlights of the year!
The Camino Ultra London 50km returns for 2025, stretching from Welwyn Garden City, to Ware, and then down the Lea Valley to our finishing line in Hackney Wick (Hackney Bridge Halls).
A second race called the Gratitude 25km will be running on at the same time as the classic 50km. A top challenge for London runners and potential trail addicts to test themselves in their own backyard!
Race organisers Darren Strachan and David Bone aka DaznBone would love to invite the Goodgym community back to bring excitement and positivity to our runners, as they finish their races.
The theme is: Bring The Party!!!
Cowbells, cheers, noise makers, music and fun!
The first finishers are likely to be approaching the finish line by midday, but our last runners may be out until 7pm.
One of the best experiences from previous years was seeing our final runners come across the finish line with a huge crowd of other runners and supporters cheering them on. Folks who had finished their own races hours ago, but got swept up with the electricity of seeing finishers coming down the canal towpath!
Area Activator Simon has been allocated as the official sweeper for the event. Can't wait to see you at the end!
A Whatsapp group will be created in the lead up to race day, and all sign ups will be invited to join it for the means of communication
