Sussex Grand Prix
The Sussex Grand Prix involves most of the running clubs in Sussex.
Announcements: Track Nights are every Monday 19:00 at Lewes
How does it work?
The Sussex Grand Prix (SGP) is a running competition that takes place between March and November each year in various locations across Sussex, in which runners compete both individually and for their club. There are twelve organised races throughout the year all around Sussex, with a points based system for individual and team scoring.
A runner’s best 6 races are used to determine their final position.
There is an extensive prize list, with trophies awarded at the end of the year based on gender and age category. There is also a team competition in which every club members’ finishing position can have an effect on the final outcome.

Why Join a Running Club?
There are many benefits to joining a running club here just a few reasons:
Meet like-minded people
Make lots of friends with people you already have running in common with and you can talk with people who understand your running interest/obsession! (blistered feet and all!)
Improve your running
You will always find someone who can run a little faster than you to be able to chase after. Organised sessions with interval training are designed to push you a little bit each week.
Support & Motivation
You will not only have your own personal bunch of cheerleaders but those days when you lack motivation become alot easier when there are others going out and getting it done and encouraging you. Just knowing other people will be there can make all the difference in lacing up your shoes and getting out that door!
It’s not about being the best.
It’s about being better than you were yesterday.
