Our Autumn / Winter coastal running series is back, and this time HERM returns to the menu not once but TWICE!
Once again, we're combining new ideas (expect a unique run route around Herm!) with highlights of past events to keep the Coastal Challenge Series fresh & exciting!
This year we'll also be keeping our friend and Try A Tri supporter Justine in our hearts and minds throughout the series and celebrating all that we love about Justine - her colour, energy, and contribution to our beloved TAT community. As well as an exceptionally bright event t-shirt (optional), there will also be a social gathering in Herm after the last event. During your sign-up, you also have the opportunity to support Justine's charity, Operation Smile. Try A Tri will also be donating 10% of event profits.
As always, our core focus of the series is to bring people together throughout the colder months, keeping active and exploring our amazing coastline via our 'creative' run routes. The run routes are all off-road and range from 5 - 10km (there will always be a 5 - 6km option).
To take part in the series you must be 16 years or older. Juniors aged 12-15 years old can enter the shorter distances if accompanied by an adult (18 years or older).
Entry Options:
FULL SERIES ADULT (16+) TICKET: £55 (does not include Herm travel)
FULL SERIES JUNIOR (12-15) TICKET: £25 (does not include Herm travel)
DROP-IN REGISTRATION: You must register as a 'drop-in' participant before taking part. Each event will cost £15, made payable on the day of your run.
EVENT T-SHIRT: £14 (option to purchase during entry)
See below for dates and locations.
Each event (except the HERM 6km) will offer two routes, one shorter (5-6km) and one longer (up to 10km) route - you can decide which one you'd like to do on the day!
THE DATES & PLACES (location details and maps to follow):
Sunday 3 November: HERM HELTER-SKELTER 6km - Herm
Sunday 15 December: HOOF THE GOUFFRE 6-9km - Le Gouffre, Guernsey
Sunday 12 January: L'ANCRESSE LOLLOP 5-9km - L'Ancresse, Guernsey
Sunday 23 February: BEAST ON THE EAST 5-7km - Jerbourg, Guernsey
Saturday 22 March: HERM SKELTER-HELTER 6km - Herm
The courses will be marked but you will need to pay attention to the route markers and read the route maps and descriptions before each event takes place.
All run routes will lead you over mixed terrain (grass, sand, mud, cliffs!) and events will take place throughout the winter months. We highly recommend wearing TRAIL SHOES for all runs.
You should be confident to walk / jog / run on all of these types of terrain before the series starts.
