Friday 20 June

What to expect on Friday

Look forward to a fun-filled start to the weekend, featuring an dynamic yoga class and the RunFest Rave Run and after party!

Welcome and registration – from 5pm

Sussex RunFest kicks off on Friday night with welcome and registration at The Hop Sun Taproom.

Kit swap and shoe recycling – all weekend

All weekend, we’re encouraging reuse and recycling. Drop off your running gear (clothes, equipment, books, etc.) or pick up something new. You don’t need to bring something to take something away! We’re also partnering with JogOn, who will recycle your old shoes responsibly.

Saturday 21 June

What to expect on Saturday

Saturday gets moving with a choice of group runs starting around 9.45am, all from The Hop Sun Taproom

From 11am, choose from a series of fun, practical, and energising events across town – including strength and conditioning classes, workshops with physios and podiatrists, and running-focused yoga. (smaller sessions with set group sizes will use a first-come-first-served booking system).

At 3pm, we’ll stop to catch our breath and sit down for some inspiring and informative talks.

Then, as we round off the day and move into the evening, get ready for the RunFest Beer Mile, complete with games and challenges, and the RunFest Party (with live music)!

Welcome and registration – from 9am

Join us for a chat, coffee, and registration on Saturday morning as we get ready for a busy day!
