🏅 MEDAL SPOILER! 🏅

Imagine it around your neck while you're proudly emptying half a beach out of your trainers. 😆

That's the reward for taking on the Unique Harbour Wallbanger on 20th September!

✔️ Along the sand.
✔️ Low tide. (we've timed it so you don't need a snorkel!)
✔️ High chance of smiling.

It's a cracking little event that's a bit different from the usual road races, and we'd love to see you on the start line.

🌊🏃‍♀️ Go on… you know you want to be a Harbour Wallbanger. 🏃‍♂️🌊

Tired of the same old runs? Fancy something a little more… sandy? A little more bonkers?

The Harbour Wallbanger Run, the coastal challenge where you charge along the beach, battle the sand, soak up the sea views, and complete the all-important mission…

🧱 BANG THE HABOUR WALL. 🧱

That’s right. The wall is waiting. Your trainers are waiting. Your friends are waiting.
It’s not your average run. It’s a seaside adventure and a whole lot of fun.

So grab your mates, drag them off the sofa, and come earn your Wallbanger bragging rights.

🌊 Sand in your shoes? Absolutely.
🧱 Wall hit? Definitely.
😎 Regrets? Only if you don’t enter.

*We have been contacted by Thanet District Council this week about the date of the event. Due to an adminstrative error on their part we are unable to hold the event on the 5th September. We had booked this date with them back in December 2025.

**HOWEVER**, we have worked quickly with the Council over the last 24 hours to secure another date near to the orginal date and the event will now be on Sunday 20th September at 12:45pm. We are very restricted by the tides as the event has to take place at low tide.*

It's the last day of July.
It's Friday.
And August starts tomorrow.

Which means:
✨ New month.
✨ New goals.

Calm down.
August can wait until Monday, that's the rule, right?

Today's achievement was the run.

This weekend's achievement is not accidentally signing up for something "life-changing" after two pints. 🍻😂

See what we have coming up, there are still so many awesome events to sign up for: https://www.sportingeventsuk.com/calendars/sport-events
