Back is the new confirmed date slot - the 'Longest Hill on the Longest Sunday' event features a bigger and better set of events than ever! The road will be closed again, and people will be running and cycling up and down it all morning. The traditional 1-mile, 5K, 10K and 10-mile runs are complemented by a family cycle ascent (all cycles welcome, including electric), a 35-mile cycle sportive and the Schools Relay (60 pupils R-Y11 completing the 8KM climb).
