Frot hose of you who don't yet know its the 17th Annual Bognor 10K run and the event will be bigger and better this year with a record 1,806 runners taking part.
Some runner applicants have been turned away this year because of the increase in numbers, but Bognor's very own Tone Zone running club will be well represented with over 100 entrants.


Keep a look out for local runnerJames Baker who could complete the course in a new record time and claim the £200 prize for the course record.
Course records are 31min 6sec for the men, set by Matthew Normington in 2005, and 35.19 for the women, by Jenny Anne Brown 1999.

But don't worry if you're a bit behind these athletes as everyone who competes recieves a finishers medal.

The race starts at 10.30am from West Park. Contestants have been given a route to the car park but expect it to be busy as there are always plenty of spectators.

Art of Dance & Fitness will provide a warm-up at 10am which always goes down well with plenty of smiles and laughter.

The race passes through Felpham village between 10.45 and 11.15. The prom is the best vantage point as runners will be seen in both directions between 10.30 until about 11.45.

This years Junior Fun Runs will also be well attended. Both take place along the prom and the £2 entry fee includes a medal for all finishers. Additional entrants can take part on the day.

Have fun everyone and keep a look out for photo's, news and views on here after the race.
