Valentines Challenge
Valentines Challenge is a six hour running event at Suffolk Running Centre, Church Road, Bury St Edmunds, IP29 5AX, organised by Zig Zag Running. The course uses the Mount Barrow Route, a 10k out and back loop, and laps start and finish at the Race HQ/Base Camp.
Participants complete as many laps as they wish within the six hour window; if they depart Base Camp before the end of that window they may begin one additional lap. Runners may rest between laps and return to the course. The Race HQ/Base Camp is located at the start and lap point and provides a water and aid station.
Possible official distances include:
- 5k
- 10k
- Half Marathon
- Full Marathon
- Ultra
Parking is included in the entry price. The event operates without mandatory navigation or kit requirements and provides straightforward logistics with an aid station every lap. Upon entry participants receive an email confirmation that includes a link to the race briefing information pack. Finishers receive a bespoke event medal or, if chosen, a lucky dip finisher medal. The event is cupless so participants should bring their own bottles or cups. Entry prices are in the range of GBP £35 to £38. Open to entrants aged 18 and over on the event date.
