This was the 4th edition of the event which has supported Eastbourne RNLI each year.

The winner of the men’s category was Chris Dodd of Eastbourne Rovers and the women’s winner was Sue Fry of Hailsham Harriers.

Next year’s run will be held in early October and is expected to be even bigger with the number of entries increasing to 300 runners.
