The Maverick Adidas Terrex Original East Sussex 2024
Saturday 27 July 2024 | Stanmer Park
Our ethos at Maverick Race is to ensure we show all our runners the best of the UK through trail running. The Maverick Adidas Terrex Original East Sussex is absolutely no exception as we all three routes will take you on an adventure through this beautiful part of our little island.
All three routes take in the famous South Downs Way, which inevitably means; rolling hills and undulating trails. The routes take in the Ditchling Beacon which is the third-highest point on the South Downs National park meaning you will be treated to stunning views all the way to London in the north and the coast to your south.
The trails on all three routes consist of; woodland walkways, chalky tracks, and farmland paths. All three routes are suitable for all levels of trail runner and the Maverick Adidas Terrex Original East Sussex is a super event for people looking to transition from road running into trail running. Please note, there is no outpost on the Short route.
Our East Sussex event is less than a 1-hour drive or train journey from the City of London, so there is little excuse not to come and explore this brand new venue and Trail running event.

HOW IT WORKS
Please note the Car park (University of Sussex) is a 15min walk from the main venue area (Stanmer Park). Please factor this in when arriving at the event.
As a guide you should always:
• Follow the on course signage
• Listen to on course marshals
• Take care when crossing roads
• Be considerate to others
• Please close all gates, DO NOT litter!
PLASTIC FREE
In our quest to make this season plastic-free, we ask that you run with a reusable cup or bottle. Hydrapak Speed Cups are available to purchase at each event and online.
OUTPOSTS
There will be no outpost on the Short route. There will be 1 outpost on the Middle route, at approximately 5.5km. There will be 2 outposts on the Long route, at approximately 6km & 13km. The outposts are designed to act as a top up for what you are already carrying. There will be a range of sweet & savoury snacks (fruit, cake, crisps) as well as Precision Hydration fuel & electrolyte.
There will not be pre-filled water cups available at the outpost. Please have your re-useable cup or bottle ready when you arrive and make use of our self serve water barrels.
HEADPHONES
We strongly recommend not wearing headphones at this event.
CUT OFFS
Although we do not have strict cut off times as such, we do appreciate if all runners (regardless of distance) are finished by 2pm. This equates to a finish time of 4hrs.
This helps to ease the pressure on our marshals, so that they are not stood outside for long periods of time.
TRANSFERS
If for any reason you wish to transfer out from an event we are happy to do this, but once only. You may transfer to any event listed on our website or even change to a higher value event and pay the difference. We cannot action any transfers or refunds for an event that has sold out.
The last day to transfer out of an event is the Monday before event day (5 days before the event), please email us on [email protected] with the name of the event you would like to move to. We are not able to move you out of an event if you contact us after this day
The Routes
Choose your route carefully. The distance and elevation gain should give you some indication as to how easy/hard each route is, as well as showing you where the tougher climbs are.
