Good
morning!
Now that
summer is here, hopefully your members are enjoying the warmer
weather and longer evenings.
For those
keen to challenge themselves, the 2025 Thackray Williams
Sevenoaks 7 is coming up on Sunday 13 July and here are some
details…
This is an
annual race, first held in 1994 as the successor to the
Sevenoaks Half Marathon, making 2025 the 30th edition. Held
in spectacular Knole Park by kind permission of Knole Estate,
it’s a hilly, multi-terrain 7 mile race with a 3.5km race for
junior runners (age 9-15). The main race starts at 09:00 with
the junior run starting at 09:10.
This year,
the Thackray Williams Sevenoaks 7 is back as a Kent Grand Prix
race –registration is open until Saturday 12th July or, if
earlier, when 500 entries are filled. Only if there are still
places available will there be on the day entries.
This is a
great event in an iconic setting with club runners and non-club
runners tackling the paths, tracks and climbs of the historic
1,000 acre deer park.
There
are cash prizes on offer for new course records and trophies and
awards for age group podium places and prizes for the fastest
men and women’s teams.
