Scilly 42, 60 and 110 – The Ballot
The race that is known as
“The best DNF ever!”
The Ballot for the 2027 event will be open soon. Watch this space .
The race that started it all. Scilly60 is the flagship 60 km multi-island trail challenge, taking runners across all five inhabited islands of the Isles of Scilly. Competitors will complete every inch of coast path on St Mary’s, St Martin’s, Tresco, Bryher, and St Agnes before returning to St Mary’s for the final 5 km push to the finish.
This is the ultimate way to experience the raw beauty, technical terrain, and wild spirit of the archipelago.

Scilly110. The Ultimate.
Cut off’s based on 7:30/km or 12:00/mile
Run the coast path of St Mary’s, before two loops of each St Martins, Tresco, Bryher and St Agnes before finishing with one final loop on St Mary’s. There is a cut off on the final stage of St Mary’s, this is based on 8:30/km due to the dark.
While the islands may be small, the terrain is anything but gentle. Expect continuous undulation, rocky sections, sand, sea spray, and technical coastal paths that demand focus from start to finish.
