Craft Half

Fancy getting boozy while pounding the pavements? At London’s Craft Half Marathon, you can have the best of both worlds. Every two miles, runners can stop and ‘refuel’ with a pint of craft beer.

Adventure

Tough Mudder Midlands

Hailed as Europe’s toughest mudder, this is not one for the faint-hearted. Battle your way through a gruelling 12 hours of thick mud, freezing water, obstacles and wild terrain, busting through as many five mile laps as you can. Participants can enter in teams of two or four, or as an individual. A test of mental grit as much as physical stamina, this will push you to the absolute limit. £139 per entry. 13 May. toughmudder.co.uk

Race The Sun Lake District

Beginning at sunrise, you and your team have 14 hours to complete the race before sunset. There are three different sections: a 50-mile cycle, a hike at the top of Helvellyn (England’s third-highest mountain), and a 3km canoe on Lake Thirlmere. No mean feat…15 September. £195 per team of four. active.com
