Shiver Me Timbers - Yo-Ho-Ho, The Smugglers Are Back in 2025!!

It's back and for 2025. The 10k and 5k routes follow the the seafront from Minnis Bay to Reculver, infamous for its smuggling in days gone by. Every finisher will also get a special medal commissioned for the event.

This is a flat 10k and 5k route, making it suitable for both beginners and those chasing a quick time! There will be lots of live pirate action, parrots, gun crews and our usual fun and friendly atmosphere. Bring the whole family and enjoy this lovely coastal location.
