Over 100 runners from across the South West will take part in a gruelling race from Burnham-On-Sea to the top of Brent Knoll and back today (Sunday, November 24th).
The annual 5.5mile run will start at 11.30am from the BASC Ground in Burnham and the runners will race across the fields to the summit of the Knoll before returning.
The event has been held for more than 20 years, having originally started as an event attached to Brent Knoll’s summer fete. Burnham Harriers took over it several years ago and moved it to the winter to make it more competitive.
Last year, the race was won by Yeovil-based runner Mark Wills, who was also first in the 2012 Burnham Half Marathon.
