Seaford Striders’ Mince Pie 10 is Back

SEAFORD STRIDERS’ MINCE PIE 10 IS BACK FOR 2022!

After a successful event in 2021 the Seaford Striders’ popular Mince Pie 10-mile race returns on Sunday 4th December at 11am.

The Mince Pie 10 is organised by the Seaford Striders to raise funds for local charities and the running club itself. Runners are encouraged to sign up early for the event, which sees many entrants returning year after year for a pre-Christmas race.

The 2022 Mince Pie 10 is sponsored by David Jordan Estate Agents and will be run in support of local charities Waves – supporting local families from domestic abuse, and The Chaseley Trust – caring for local people with severe disabilities and offering residential, respite, day care and therapy.

The undulating course is a mixture of four on-road and six off-road miles, taking in the beautiful countryside scenery around Telscombe and Saltdean. The race is open to runners of all abilities aged 17 plus, although the race is unsuitable for wheelchair users. The Mince Pie 10 has an entrants’ limit of just 650 runners, with previous events being sold out, so early registration is encouraged.

Mince Pie race director Nick Farley, said: ‘We’re looking forward to welcoming new and returning runners to the Mince Pie 10 this year. Voted one of the UK’s Top Ten races in Runners World this is not one to be missed. The festive atmosphere will be sure to get you in the Christmas spirit. With increased entries this year due to demand, we’re expecting the race to sell out in record time. The race is open to all abilities – from PB chasers to fancy dress teams!’

The race starts and finishes at the Peacehaven Leisure Centre at 11am. Runners can sign up online now at https://www.nice-work.org.uk/races/the-mince-pie-10mile. The route will be marshalled by Seaford Striders, with plentiful support along the route. All finishers will receive a medal, goody bag and, of course, a mince pie (or cake).
