Take on the latest RH&DRSA challenge - Beat the Bug Virtual Half Marathon & 10k! Join the fun and help preserve the history and heritage of Kent's favourite steam railway.
 

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 2024 Virtual Half Marathon & 10k is here!!
The Romney Hythe and Dymchurch Railway has been running steam locomotives across Romney Marsh for almost 100 years.
The Supporters Association is raising money to help keep these wonderful feats of engineering running and this virtual half marathon will raise funds for Typhoon.
Typhoon was designed by Henry Greenly and was delivered to the railway in 1927 and is now due an important overhaul to help preserve it and keep it running.

So, get your walking (or running) shoes on and take part this November to help with the overhaul of this wonderful locomotive.
And in the meantime... why not visit the railway on 26th and 27th October and visit the wonderful Autumn Gala?
