The award winning Run to the Sea Brighton is back for a 2nd year on Saturday 14th May 2022.

Our 50km multi terrain route is beautiful and a tale of two halves. From your start at the incredible Christ’s Hospital School near Horsham, the first half takes in firm trails through rural West Sussex to reach the South Downs Way. It’s actually slightly downhill until this point!

At halfway the route climbs up onto the Downs where you’ll pick up your first views of the sea. After the incredible scenery of the Devils Dyke, the rolling trails will see you venture into the northern outskirts of Brighton, passing farms & windmills and cutting through green spaces all of the way to the seafront at Hove.

Of course, as you would expect as an award winning event, there’ll be medals, souvenirs, prizes, a fully signed course, feed stations approx every 10km, and a lot more.

You have the option to park at the finish end of the run (Brighton) and use our pre race shuttle service to the start.
We’ll have generous time limits in place, so you can take your time if you’d like to; this is a perfect event for runners new to the world of the ultra marathon.
