Next event: Tues 2 July, 2024
Runners will be set off at handicapped intervals from 19:00 hours or just before based on their estimated time and the estimated time of the handicapper (whose decision is final!). The idea is for all runners to race to the finish line together. There will be club awards for the first paid-up Brighton Phoenix member across the finish line.
Entries will be taken on the night up to 18:30 when start times will also be announced. First runner starts at about 19:00hrs.
This event is 16+ however, 14-15 year olds can race with the permission of their parents/guardian and coach.
Parking: The car park at Ditchling Beacon is pay and display. Please car share where possible.
