About this Event
The Big Vokesey Challenge 2026
Join us for the third annual Big Vokesey Challenge – a community running event bringing people together to celebrate the lives of Archie and Kate Vokes, while raising money for an incredible charity.
Whether you're taking on your first 5km, chasing a 10km personal best, or pushing yourself through the Half Marathon, this event is all about challenging yourself, enjoying the day, and making a real difference.
The route combines road and trail running, giving you a varied and enjoyable course through beautiful surroundings. But the finish line is just the beginning. Stick around afterwards for an afternoon of live music, great food, drinks, and an amazing atmosphere with friends, family, and fellow runners.
The Big Vokesey Challenge isn't just about running. It's about community, remembering two special people, supporting a fantastic cause, and creating memories together. Whether you're running, walking, cheering from the sidelines, or simply coming along to soak up the atmosphere, we'd love for you to be part of it.
Come and challenge yourself, have some fun, and help us raise as much money as possible for an incredible charity. We can't wait to see you on the start line.
