Sikhs In The City Dawn To Dusk Sunlight Ultra 2020

Sunday, 21 February 2021

We are pleased to announce that the date for our postponed 2020 friendly race has been set as Sunday 21st February 2021. Yes there will also be the 2021 race on 12 December 2021.

Due to COVID we were unable to keep the race on our traditional nearest convenient Sunday to the shortest day of the year but have tried to avoid clashes with other local races. The race will be under the relevant COVID restrictions applicable at the time including your honesty in declaring that you are not affected at the time of applying - if you do have to pull out for any reason, we will offer you a deferred place at our next D2D or similar event such as the Fauja Singh Birthday Challenge on 11 April.

We hope to welcome back as many of our loyal regulars as possible, while also encouraging first timers to give us a try.

Those of you who have taken part in this (D2D) event will already know but for the first timers here is a summary:

  • The route is wheelchair friendly and mostly on good tarmac surface
  • Races start at 8:04 am - Sunrise
  • If you complete 11 laps of a 2.014 Km course you will receive a Half marathon medal
  • Complete 21 laps to receive a Marathon medal
  • Complete at least 25 laps and you will have earned an Ultra medal.
  • You can run until 3:54 pm - Sunset
