It's the crash of waves and the sea-salt that lingers in the cool coastal air. It's your moment to fly along the promenade in this cracking 10K. It's a seaside racing extravaganza!

Overview

This is a true seafront race, taking place along both the top and bottom promenades, with plenty of holidaymakers and day trippers to cheer you on!

The course for both races is largely flat and both are suitable for runners of all standards, from those looking to complete their first event to seasoned athletes. This race is absolute corker and continues to grow in reputation, so early booking is advised to secure your place.

Well organised and very well supported by locals, especially at the finish area. Plenty of water supplied plus coke, jaffa cakes and jelly babies on the final lap. The marshals were encouraging and helpful plus the course was well marked. Jess L

A windy and tough race. It was harder than I thought but everything was well organised from water stations to marshal. Wing U

It's a beautiful setting... The race was well organised, the car parking plentiful and the toilets clean...  Sarah M
