The 2023 Scores Race, a unique race in Britain’s most easterly town, will take place again on Sunday 27th August with huge thanks to our sponsors Birds Eye, RWE Generation UK and Greater Gabbard Wind Farm. The senior race (16 years +) will start at 2:30pm, and the Junior race (9-15 years) will start at 2.35pm.This will be the 26th running of the race, organised by Waveney Valley Athletic Club, taking in the historic scores in Lowestoft. Starting and finishing in the upper high street, competitors can be assured of a great atmosphere and plenty of spectators.This demanding race comprises of 13 stepped and sloped scores over a course of approximately 4.75 miles and 401 steps (Senior Race) and approximately 1.4 miles and 254 steps (Junior Race).
A small section of the course is currently undergoing maintenance and so the course has been rerouted; however we have kept the course as close as possible to previous years and not missed any inclines!
We are conscious about waste created by races and taking measures to mitigate this and reduce our carbon footprint. As such, there will be a table to leave your own (named!) bottle at the finish line so as not to use single-use bottles of water.
It goes without saying that this race wouldn’t be possible without the generosity of our major sponsors – Birds Eye , RWE Generation UK and Greater Gabbard Wind Farm. We would also like to thank for graphic design support from Graphic Solutions, water from ASDA and loos from Sole Bay Waste & Recycling.
We are delighted that Christchurch is supporting us with race HQ again this year with bag drop and post-race refreshments. This is also where prize-giving will take place.
