Phoenix Running West Sussex stages a timed multi-distance event at Ardingly Activity Centre, set on and around Ardingly Reservoir in Haywards Heath, West Sussex. The organiser provides a bespoke donut medal for finishers and offers doughnuts at the event; a no-medal entry option is also available.

Runners complete laps of a 7 km / 4.35 mile out-and-back course around the reservoir and may do as many or as few laps as they wish. Completing a single lap is recorded as a finish and all entries are subject to a seven hour overall time limit.
