About the race
The Witterings Beach Run is held at West Wittering Beach on the Chichester coast. The course runs along a Blue Flag beach with wide sandy flats at low tide and offers panoramic views of Selsey Bill, the Isle of Wight, Chichester Harbour, the Solent and the South Downs.
Three distance options are provided:
- 15.3K
- 10K
- 5K
The 15.3K route includes a lap of the Medmerry Nature Reserve using its wide gravel paths. The beach sections at low tide provide a largely sandy running surface and the route is fully signed with pink arrows and pink tape. Hazards and road junctions are marked with caution signs.
Event services include chip timing, on-course water stations, first aid cover, course marshals, event photography, and a personalised finisher certificate. Finishers receive a metal medal, a drink and a finisher goodie. The event operates a plastic free policy at water stations and requests participants bring a reusable cup or bottle.
Canicross is permitted with one dog per runner; organisers list basic dog-care items to bring. Race day registration requires collection of a running bib on arrival and a QR code for verification. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
