PHOENIX - Dragon's Gate

Sat 22nd July 2023

A medal with intricate dragon designs: twin dragons face each other atop the circular metal structure adorned with stone-like textures. The words "DRAGON GATE" are in the center. The ribbon has a scaly pattern with "DRAGON GATE" text and a smaller dragon image. A scenic vineyard with rows of grapevines under a partly cloudy sky. A sign reading "RUN ROUTE" with arrows points along a pathway between the vines, leading towards distant hills covered in greenery. Two women in green "Little Miss Chatterbox" running tops and sunglasses smile for the camera. They are standing outdoors on a sunny day, surrounded by green vineyards and trees.

Organiser's Description

We're absolutely delighted to be back at the wonderful Denbies Wines Estate for a very special run with a very special medal indeed.

The Dragon's Gate Run is one of our themed events and the medal will be one of our epic flagship medals, but at our standard event entry prices. It's a medal of epic proportions and we're not even going to show you the whole thing, but needless to say - you won't want to miss this one!

This is a multi-distance event - from 5km to 10k, half to marathon to ultra, you can complete as many, or as few, laps as you like of a 5.3km, 3.28 mile, looped course around the beautiful Denbies Wine Estate within the overall 7 hour time limit. We welcome all abilities of runner - complete one loop and you're both a finisher and a winner in our eyes, or keep going and see how far you can get in the full 7 hour time limit and everyone gets the fabulous bespoke finishers' medal.

Whilst Phoenix Running is very much about the bling and our medals are second to none, we're also acutely conscious that events can be expensive to enter and times are tough right now. We're now in our 8th year of fixed prices for our standard themed events, but to try and do our bit we have a 'no medal' entry option at a flat £20 for some events. We cover our base costs, you get a run with all the usual Phoenix support, epic aid station, same day results published, athletes profiles, Phoenix World, digital BIBs, digital finishers certificates, etc, etc but without a medal we can keep the price low for this entry option.

Not sure? Well the beauty of this format is that you don't even need to decide in advance - simply come and run a lap and see how you feel on the day and keep on going if it feels right.

Places will be strictly limited so don't leave it too late to enter.

Minimum distance is 3.28 miles or as far as you can go in 7 hours.

Off road trail, through the wine estate with the odd hill thrown in.
