Hapi on the Hill

Hapi on the Hill

Hapi on the Hill takes place at L’Etacq Hill in Jersey and is set in a natural amphitheatre. The event raises awareness and funds for Dementia Jersey with the message “The aging you want tomorrow begins with the choices you make today.”

The event uses a single course of approximately 500 metres. Runners complete a set number of ascents and descents of the same hill and remain on the right side of the course. Solo categories and their ascent counts are: 5k (5 ascents, age 11+), 10k (10 ascents, age 15+), Half Marathon (19 ascents, age 17+) and Marathon (38 ascents, age 18+). Team relay categories cover marathon, half marathon, 10 km and 5 km distances with age rules varying by team size. The Corporate Cup and Junior Cup take place within the half marathon relay; junior teams that raise £1,000 or more for Dementia Jersey by race day will have their entry fee reimbursed.

Organisers reserve the right to adjust category capacities for safety or logistics. The event village is planned to include food, non alcoholic beverages, entertainment, massage, sauna facilities, toilets, merchandise and medics. Start and finish access is at the entrance to the Stinky Bay car park, and primary parking areas are Battery Moltke and the Old Milano Bars site car park at La Saline slip on Vert Rue.

Merchandise will be available and additional items are included with entries by distance. The first 100 entrants receive a free pair of Stance Performance socks and the top individual fundraiser will win a £550 Bleubird paddle board through Hapi on the Hill Sports Giving. Event partners include local race organisers, sponsors for each distance and a drone photographer engaged to capture the event. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
