The 2024/25 Dave Jones Prom Run Series is now open for entry.
The Dave Jones Prom Runs are an annual series of nine five-mile races, covering two laps of the famous Weston-super-Mare promenade. The races are open to all runners of all standards, over the age of 16. As well as the five-mile race we host a one-mile series for children aged between four and sixteen (reception to year 11), run each month, just before the adult’s race. The five-mile race is chip timed and staged under UKA Rules. Medical cover is provided. The accuracy of the course measurement has been certified by a UKA-approved course measurer. Results will appear on the Power of 10 rankings.
