A local race that shines! Take a spellbinding step (or few!) back in time as you race through history in the BBB10k. A fantastic race that'll blow your running socks off, courtesy of the Battle Bonfire Boyes!

This is a Partner race
This means that we are working with a host Partner Organisation and provide timing and/or race management services for their event.

Event Overview:
The BBB10k is truly a treat to race. It takes runners through the pretty and historic streets of Battle, exploring the surrounding villages before finishing at the ancient Battle Abbey. It's a fast course with some hilly sections, and a great race for beginners and experts alike. It enjoys a wonderful race-day buzz as runners take to the start line and you won't be short of some fantastic local support; in previous years, Battle residents have come out in full force to cheer and support our runners as they charge towards the finish line. You won't want to miss this racing gem!

Course Details:
Starting in Battle High Street, the race heads up to the roundabout, turning around and going back down the High Street, along Lower Lake and turning into Powdermill Lane. The race then heads towards Catsfield before turning back towards Battle along Catsfield Road. From here you race towards Battle via North Trade Road and finish on the Abbey Green with the historic Battle Abbey as the backdrop.

Junior Runners:
We love celebrating our junior racers and encouraging them to the start line where we cheer each and every one of them. We hope that their experiences will help to inspire a life-long love of this wonderful and enriching sport.

The junior race is an out and back race along the High Street, starting at 09:30 before the main race and road closures will be in place for this. The race is open to all juniors aged between 9 - 14 years. All children will receive a finishers medal.

Parents are responsible for collecting their children at the finish line. If parents are accompanying their children on this race (and this is something that we encourage!) then no additional entry is required. However, participating parents will not receive a junior race medal... these are reserved exclusively for our junior runners! We hope that you will join us in supporting our young runners with uproarious cheers!
