Friday July 1st – 7:30pm

Race 1 – 10k

The Rye Summer Classic Series is a popular series of three Friday evening events – now in its 17th year. The series features two 10K races – July 1st and August 4th, finishing with a season finalè 5K on September 1st. 

All events take place within the stunning Rye Harbour Nature Reserve🎋, one of Britain’s most important conservation sites.  These races are an out and back course on a traffic free road that take runners through the nature reserve with stunning views of camber sands towards the finish🏖 

Fast, and flat, its a perfect opportunity for a new PB 🐝 

Amongst the 122 runners, Three Harriers braved the tropical conditions 🏝️ last Friday although not only did they face the heat but the wind ramped up for an added challenge.  

Fluffy 🐌 finished first Harrier across the line in 50:42 followed by Club legend, Bill Fraser ✉️, finishing in 54:25 (a minute quicker than last year 🤩) and placing 1st in age 🏆, with the awesome Katie Manley 🌼 having an incredible run to cross the line in 56:54 💪🏼 

What a fabulous evening for team black and red 🖤❤️ Congratulations to you all, those are truly amazing performances 🏆 👑 🏅 and we are very proud of your achievements 🖤❤️

Good luck to everyone running tonight at the Tempo Relays and at the Phoenix 10K.  Looks like it may be a little breezy along the coast 🌬️
