What people are saying

Hear it from the runners

★★★★★

"I love running in new places and new cultures, but this is a way to really immerse, and not just visit as a tourist. It's raw, it's emotional, but that's how it should be."

Ade — pro ultrarunner

★★★★★

"It's had a massive impact on my life. Running through these areas, it motivates me to keep on going — because you're not just doing it for yourself, you're doing it for the cause."

Gav — first-time ultrarunner

The week

Part adventure, part purpose

Five days built around a single-day 60km ultra and real connection with the communities you're funding.

1: Meet the communities

A hosted day with the High Atlas Foundation — you meet the people you're running for before you run a step. This is the heart of the week.

2: Run the 60km ultra

An all-inclusive week in Morocco that leaves you with friendship, perspective, and a purpose that stays with you long after you've flown home.

Secure your place

Meet the communities first. Then run for them.

Why we exist

You run for them

In September 2023, a 6.8 magnitude earthquake struck the High Atlas — Morocco's deadliest in over sixty years. Three years on, these communities are still rebuilding.

Where your money goes

Local jobs & paid work

Part of every entry funds paid roles in logistics, cooking, route support, aid stations and village projects.

Optional runner fundraising

We set up a page through the High Atlas Foundation and help you hit your goal. 100% goes to earthquake recovery.

Long-term support

The event keeps these villages visible and funded year-round, well beyond the recovery window.

Questions

Good to know.

Can I pay in instalments?+

Yes, and it's the standard option — €500 today, €725 on 31 August, €725 on 30 September. No credit check and no third party involved.

Klarna is also available at checkout if you'd rather split it further, and paying in full saves you €100.

Do I need to book my own flights?+

Yes. Flights are the main thing not covered, along with personal travel insurance and lunch on Day 1.
