Universities of Sussex and Brighton

The sprint championships will be based at the University of Sussex with the qualifying round also using the newly mapped Falmer Campus of the University of Brighton. The assembly area will be based at the Sports Complex, facilities at which include toilets, showers, a bar and Sky TV. A snippet of the University of Sussex map is shown to the right.

This will be the first running of the combined sprint championships with medals available at all age classes except M/W18 and M/W20 which will be combined with M/W21 to form a single elite class. Due to the length of the sprint courses no S classes will be offered. The championships will consist of parallel qualifying rounds for each age group from which the top runners will qualify for the A final. The results from the A final will determine the medalists. Those not qualifying for the A final will have the opportunity to run in a B or C final.

Anticipated first start for the qualifying heats is 11:00am. Parking is close to assembly. There is a walk of 1.5km to all heat starts. Finish is in the assembly area. Anticipated first start for the elite finals is 14:00 with all other finals starting from 14:50. Start and finish both in assembly area.

Worth Lodge

The middle distance championships will be based at Tulleys Farm which has many facilities including a tea room, farm shop and activities for younger children. A snippet of the Worth Lodge map is shown to the bottom right.

Parking will be at the main Tulleys Farm complex which is 800m from the assembly area. Anticipated first starts will be at 10:00. For the elite competitions (M/W18-21) start times will be allocated according to Appendix M of the BOF rules. Every effort however will be made to accomodate families where both parents are running in one of these classes. The elite start will be in the assembly area, all other age classes have a 700m walk to their start. The finish for all classes is in the assembly area.
