Hip Hip Hooray it's Hornsea

Hip Hip Hooray it's Hornsea is a trail running event based in Hornsea, East Yorkshire (HU18 1PZ). The races start by the coast and follow an out-and-back route along the Trans Pennine Trail on generally flat, good-quality paths. The setting finishes near the seafront and includes seaside amenities.

The event offers a range of distances licensed by the Trail Running Association, with feed and drink stations approximately every three miles. The organiser operates a cupless policy at aid stations, so participants are asked to carry a reusable cup or bottle. The course is marshalled and signed, though there may be some unmarshalled road crossings. Toilets are available in the local leisure centre. Finishers receive a bespoke medal and assorted post-race treats.

Practical arrangements note parking close to the venue with council charges that may apply and an encouragement to consider car sharing. Registration is handled on the day; participants are advised to allow time to park, register and use the toilets. Transfers and deferrals can be managed through the event website or the booking platform used. The organiser requests that changes are avoided on race day to reduce queues and delays. Guidance on earphones asks runners not to use large over-ear headphones and suggests bone conduction or single-ear use if needed. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
