Location: The Fairway Running Track

Ryde Harriers are hosting a track race series, at the fairway Sandown, as part of the club’s summer series. This year there will be a track race approximately once a month, from May to September.
This year, all runners are requested to use the free online entry portal to register for each event, so that estimated finish times can be collected. If there are sufficient numbers entered for each event, the plan is to hold multiple races each evening, with each race will be seeded by estimated finish time. Entry on the day will still be accepted, but online registration is preferred even if you are not 100% certain you can attend.
