A totally free social event to say thanks to everyone who supported Mark and myself throughout the past year with our Wednesday groups, Summer Ultra & the craziness that was Clue-Doh!

Starting at 7.30pm it will follow the same format as the last few years, in it being a guided run over the Surrey Hills. The main difference is we’ve now got an indoor venue to start & finish from. Those mince pies will be eaten this year.

We’re limited to 200 places so make sure you sign up early. In the event of over subscription, a ballot will be held although we will have a number of secured places for regular contributors of the group.

***Mandatory kit list includes Headtorch & of course a Canary. No Canary, no run.***
