Love the SVN events, they are friendly, with great aid station with cake!!
The race briefing was decribed both the route, also celebrated different achievements people have made, there was also prizes for fancy dress.
The event takes place in the shadow of the white cliffs of Dover, you run around the edge of saphire hoe & along the sea wall. It is an out & back route, it was a fairly flat route apart from a down hill on the way out & then you get to run up it again on the way back. Once you have made it back to the aid station you get your card stamped & can have some cake, crisps etc. There is also space to leave your own drinks, etc or your car is also close to the aid station so it's easy if you leave stuff there.
The event is a 6 hour timed event, so as long as you complete 1 lap you are a finisher, it doesn't matter if you walk, run or want to skip round. Once you've made it back to the aid station & you dont want to continue there is a bell to ring, you will then have your time recorded, you will then be given a medal & goody bag. The medal is massive & heavy, the goody bag is full of crisps, chocolate & a bottle of beer.
