Rye Summer 5k Series: Race Five : Rye Harbour Nature Reserve
The Rye Summer Classic Series is a five-race series held across spring and summer at The Point, Rye Harbour Nature Reserve, East Sussex. The reserve covers a mosaic of interlocking shingle ridges, saltmarsh, intertidal grazing, reed-beds and saline lagoons, creating a coastal setting for the event. The course surface is tarmac and described as flat and fast; windy conditions are possible and can affect times. The course is accurately measured and route maps including GPX files are available.
This final race in the series is a 5k event. The series includes a 1k junior run at other dates, but only the 5k is available to book for this final race. Included for participants are a bespoke medal for the 5k, trophies and free parking. The event page notes on-the-day entry fees and provides dates for the full series across May to September 2026. The location is given as The Point, Rye Harbour Nature Reserve, Rye, East Sussex, TN31 7TU. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
