About this Event
Fancy a jog with me?
On the last weekend of November, I’m teaming up with St Austell Brewery for the ProperJob 0.5% 100km: a planned 100km running adventure over two days, from Newquay to St Austell, with an overnight stop in Padstow.
Saturday 28th and Sunday 29th November.
We’ll follow stretches of the South West Coast Path, Camel Trail and Saints’ Way, linked by lanes and footpaths. Expect sea views, Cornish countryside, good conversation and pub stops along the way.
It’s free to join, and you can run as much or as little as you like. Come for 5km, a morning, a full day or the whole weekend. Pick a section that suits your fitness and experience. Please register so that we can send you a questionnaire to find out which section you will be joining.
Thanks to St Austell Brewery, Proper Job 0.5% will be complimentary at participating pub stops when you’re there with me. Other food and drinks are at your own expense unless specifically included.
We’ll have a finishers photo at St Austell Brewery before heading to Charlestown for a Sunday evening celebration open to runners, friends, family and anyone who fancies joining us.
Route map, joining information and updates will be shared when you register.
