Club trip to Black Rock 5 beach race, Fri evening 14th June, Kinghorn, Fife


I am looking to organise a club outing to the Black Rock '5' and wondered if there is interest from members. 
It's a Friday evening race and very sociable event where all standards of runners will feel at home. The idea would be that we coordinate on transport and head there and back together and enjoy a bit of socialising after. 

We'd head from Inners about 5.15pm / Peebles 5.30pm and return leaving about 10pm getting back about 11.30pm  on the Friday night. We could meet anyone there if they were travelling direct from Edinburgh by train.

Race summary:

The Black Rock '5' is a unique road and beach race taking place at 7.30pm on Friday 14th June 2019 in Kinghorn, Fife. The race is approximately 7km and is timed to coincide with a sufficiently low tide to enable runners to pass behind the Black Rock which is about 1km offshore from Burntisland.
The race is pre-entry only with the field limited to approximately 1000 on the night.  The race has sold out each year. Fastest runners cover the course in about 23 mins, slowest about an hour
All over 18s who complete the race will receive a bottle of beer, all finishers will also receive a bottle of water and a banana.
There will be a presentation ceremony at The Harbour View pub about 9pm.
£13/15 to enter

THE RACE OPENS FOR ENTRIES ON SUNDAY 5 MAY AT 7.00pm. IT WILL FILL UP FAST SO SET AN ALARM IF YOU WANT TO ENTER OR YOU MAY MISS OUT
