About the race
The Scillonian Sprint is a trail running event on St Marys in the Isles of Scilly, organised by Scilly60 Events. It is designed for participants who wish to run on the island during a single visit and is presented as a charity event.
There are two route options:
- 17 km Circumnavigation of St Marys along the complete coastal path.
- 8 km Route covering key sections of the southwest side of St Marys.
Runners may swap distances nearer the event if needed. The race starts after the Scillonian ship arrives on the island. Participants are given about three hours and thirty minutes to complete either course. Adult participants receive a complimentary Scilly60 Events Pale Ale provided by the event sponsor Firebrand Brewing Co and a piece of artwork mapping the journey from Erica Hicks Prints.
The event information notes arrival by the Scillonian ferry from Penzance as part of the day plan and lists Porthmellon Beach on St Marys as a race location. Registration is managed by the event organiser and places are limited. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
