It’s back for 2022! What’s it all about? The Suffolk GP is a series of races where you can get competitive with others from around the county. Your scores from these races determine your position in the league. There are age graded categories to keep people level. As well as the individual competition there is also a team competition, basically the more HRC members that compete the better we do! In past years HRC have done really well with lots of runners achieving podium finishes and winning categories!

BE WARNED this is popular and races sell out quick – so don’t delay and enter as soon as the events open!

You can work this to your advantage and be competitive by picking your preferred distances. Everyone has a good chance so come and give it a go. If you don’t want to be competitive all of these runs are really enjoyable anyway. Some have some really good tshirts and bling as well. Lots of HRC runners attend so it also becomes a lovely social outing with your running buddies!
