Meeting point

The meeting point is in the field on the left as you enter Stanmer Park. 

If using what3words, enter ///pirate.voter.saves in the free app, to find the exact starting point.

We encourage the use of public transport to access the event to reduce pollution to the Brighton and Hove area.

By train: A footpath leads to Stanmer Park from Falmer station’s main entrance (the entrance by the ticket office). Approximately 8 minute walk (0.4 miles).

By bus: The Brighton and Hove ‘Breeze’ Bus Service provides access to Stanmer Park. The Route 78 arrives at Stanmer Park Gates (approximately 2 minute walk from the event site) every 15 minutes on Sundays. Plan your journey here. Buses 25 and 28 also run at the weekends, within a 5-minute walk away from the event site).

By car: Due to unforeseen circumstances, we are no longer able to use the usual Stanmer Park field for event parking at the weekend and so we are encouraging participants to use public transport where possible. Falmer Train Station is a 7-minute walk from the event area and buses 25, 28 and 78 operate nearby.

As parking in the Stanmer Park car parks will still be charged, the University of Sussex have kindly given us permission for participants to park for free in their Jubilee multi-storey car park which is only a 10-minute walk from the event area.

To access this car park, please enter University of Sussex campus via University Way or Knights Gate Road and follow signs to 'Car Park 7', which is at the end of Arts Road. Please use postcode BN1 9RG or use the what3words app to take you to the exact location (using the words ///pile.soon.broad). Once parked, follow signage and stewards' instructions to cut through into the top of Stanmer Park from the car park, as this will be much quicker than walking back along the roads!

Please do not park on grass verges within Stanmer Park or on the surrounding roads, as parking fines will be issued. We apologise for any inconvenience caused by changing the parking information at this last stage, but look forward to seeing you at Stanmer Park at the weekend!

Course information

The Brighton route takes you through the fields and woodland paths of the beautiful Stanmer Park. The course follows a mixture of woodland and grass paths and comes with challenging cross-country terrain. There are some steep inclines to challenge you and create an even bigger sense of achievement once you have completed the event!

Adults accompanying children will run alongside the course but will not be allowed to take part on the obstacles.

Please arrive 15 to 20mins before your start time so that you are prepared and ready to go on time.

There will not be any water refill stations along the course so if you require water during the event, please remember to bring your own reusable water bottle already filled up. You will be able to refill this at the refill station when you finish.
