YHA 14 Mile Trail Run
The YHA 14 Mile Trail Run is an annual off-road event scheduled for late November. The course covers a distance of 14 miles and operates under the TRA race permit 7715. The route features an immediate incline at the start, with the start line positioned at the top of a bridge.
The terrain involves varied surfaces that can be slippery underfoot, specifically including muddy sections and chalk descents. Participants are advised to wear trail shoes and carry appropriate clothing, water, and nutrition suitable for the seasonal weather conditions. Detailed navigation resources, including a trail narrative and links to digital map routes, are provided for participants to download.
The event offers several amenities for runners:
- 14 miles over trail terrain with significant elevation changes
- Numbered bibs and event-branded headwear provided at check-in
- Drinking water available at the start and at a designated midway station
- Refreshments including tea, coffee, and cake served at the finish line
The event center is located at the YHA cafe in Southease. Due to very limited parking in the surrounding area, the use of rail or bicycle transport is recommended. The venue is accessible via Southease station on the Lewes-Seaford railway line. Participation is restricted to individuals aged 18 and over. Registration fees vary depending on the date of entry and membership status with TRA or UKA. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
