Event Overview
The Lucky Clover is a flexible-distance running event. It is based at the Suffolk Running Centre on Church Road in Bury St Edmunds. Participants can choose their own goal distance.
Race Distances
The event offers five distance options:

- Half Marathon
- Full Marathon
- Ultra Marathon
Different routes are used: the Clover Half Route for the half and full marathon distances, and the Golding Hills route for the 5k and 10k distances.
Event Format & Facilities
There is a single mass start. The event has a seven-hour time limit for participants to complete their chosen distance. An aid station with drinks and snacks is available approximately every 10 kilometers. The Race HQ, start, and lap point are all located at the base camp, which also hosts a water and aid station. Parking is included in the entry fee.
Finisher Awards
All finishers receive a medal. There is a standard "Bespoke Event Medal" designed specifically for the race. Alternatively, for some distances, participants can select a "Lucky Dip Finisher Medal" option, which provides a medal chosen from a selection of previous event or finisher medals.
Important Notes
The event operates a cupless policy, so participants must bring their own bottle or cup for refilling at aid stations. Entrants must be aged 18 or over on the day of the event. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
