New for 2017 sees a brand new summer series for Gravesend.

A unique opportunity to sharpen up your speedwork through the Summer Months.

The races are great for Autumn marathon training and for a speedwork session, as part of a schedule to complete your first 5K and /or 10K - or for those just looking for a timed and measured run on a weekday Summer's evening.
