Overview
Celebrating its silver anniversary, the Bewl 15 & 5 is one of the most beautiful races in the UK with a stunning lakeside race route. And, this year, it also forms part of the Sussex Grand Prix 2025 roster. We can't lie; it's a challenging trail route! But, the views are magnificent and the quiet country lanes must have been made for racing so you won't be disappointed! It's a corker of a race filled with community vibes and heart, and it's open to everyone. Not only that, but you'll be racing to support the KSS Air Ambulance Service.
Please note, new for 2025, the 15 mile route includes a four hour cut off time.

Running for a Cause 
Bewl 15 & 5 supports the fantastic work of Air Ambulance Charity Kent Surrey Sussex (KSS). 
We hope that you never need them but every year, thousands of people do. Their helicopters are flying emergency rooms. When there's a life or death call, they bring specialised doctors, paramedics and treatment ro the scene, fast. And, they don't stop, 24/7, 365 days a year. But, without you, they can't get off the ground. Your support gets their life saving team to where they're urgently needed. Without you, they can't keep flying. Without you, they can't save lives.
