LONDON 2 BRIGHTON COMING SOON

bounce Hi boys and girls .. Ambition Events are just about to announce the return of London to Brighton on SEPTEMBER 28TH ! THERE WILL ONLY BE 50 PLACES
This is not to be confused with the race  from London to Brighton that has aleready been announced

Gaza
Ernie

Are you in this one Gazza ?

The original London to Brighton Road Race closed down to safety issues and due to lack of the many Regular Officials required to ensure the smooth running of this race.
Many stories abound of "near misses" between Cars and Runners and had a few close calls myself during this race of which I have completed 3 times in the past (I think Lorna may has done it 4 times).

If Ambition Events can pull this one off I'd be impressed but its good to hear that this "Historic old Race" is once again being run.

Quote-(The London to Brighton road had been used as a point to point distance of 50 miles plus, for various ‘foot races’, since the early part of the 19th Century)
