Remembrance Day Run - South

About The Event

THE IS THE EVENT HELD IN SURREY, SOUTH EAST
The Remembrance Day Run is your chance to remember those who have given the ultimate sacrifice during conflicts around the world. During our event, we will commemorate the fallen heroes who sacrificed their future for our future. We will have a two minute silence at 11:00am and we will remove the two minutes from your official time.

Distance & Time

This is a 7hr Time Challenge event which allows you full control over the distance you want to run. The minimum distance is 5km, which is part of a lap. A full lap is 4.37 miles (7km) and you can run as many or as few of these laps as you wish in the 7hr time limit which starts from the official event start time. It is 3 laps for a half marathon, 6 for a marathon and 7 or over for an ultra, we also have a 50km distance available.

Course

The course along a beautiful stretch of the River Thames. It is fully signed so no navigational experience is required. The course is a mixture with approximately 60% of it on a well-made path / tarmac. The remainder is grass and light trail which can get muddy at certain times of the year. Road shoes can be used all year round but if you prefer the extra grip on the trail sections then trail shoes can be worn.

Medals & Pins

As long as you complete one lap, you will be an official finisher and you will receive one of our incredible Remembrance medals to honour all the brave soldiers who gave their lives for us.. We also have distance pins available for anyone who runs a half-marathon distance or more. Pins available to collect are our Half-Marathon, Mega-Half, Marathon, 50km and Ultra pins. You will receive one pin on the ribbon of your medal to reflect your achievement.

Goody Bag

Absolutely! You earned the calories after all, so all our finishers get a goody bag. As well as our standard goody bag, with a selection of various goodies to choose from, we also have a fabulous vegan goody bag for our vegan runners.
