Organised by Run Rebel, the BrighTEN Seafront Run featured a scenic 10-miler and 10K run along Brighton’s beautiful seafront, past the historic two piers, the I360 Tower and along Hove prom.

The course description sells the race as ‘enjoy the fresh sea breeze as you dash along the picturesque promenade, surrounded by the charm of Hove’ and Jo Davis did just that.

Jo joined her friend Anthony at this event taking on the 10K whilst Anthony ran in the 10-mile event.  Here’s Jo’s account of a fab morning by the sea 🌊

‘To help Anthony with his half marathon training, we signed up for a 10-mile run for him, and a 10k for me, so he could get rid of some race day nerves early and prep for a more organised event over in Brighton. It was effing freezing this morning so we both had to go for it to just to keep warm – it took a good 2.5 miles for my feet 👣 to thaw!! A new PB for me, a great run for Anthony and a bonus corgi at the end (yup, I did yell ‘Corgi’ as per the rules even tho I had half a mile to go and I was clinging on at that point!) later, and now it’s pizza 🍕 time! 🎉

As she says, Jo finished with a mighty new 10K personal best of 1:06:32 🙌 🖤♥️ All that hard work paying off Jo ⭐️

Well done Jo and Anthony, fantastic running on a freezing morning by the sea 🌊
