WOW what a second great year for Curlys in Skegness!
And our good pals at Butlins Skegness have invited us back for 2027 (phew!)
Yup, we're back for 2027 on the 31st of January, with seagulls and sunshine (maybe!)
The event
Expect a super flat and fast PB potential course as we make our way through the traffic free seaside location amongst the caravans, starting and finishing in the grounds of Butlins caravan park!
The route is flat, fast and we’ve made it as spectator friendly as possible; 2026 saw Billy and Bonnie the Butlins bears in attendance, giant seagulls (don't worry it was our volunteers dressed up) and lot's of family friendly fun.
There is an water station on route, music throughout the course and of course greeting you at the finish will be your well deserved medal and tasty cake based treat!
The event is chip timed and holds an England Athletics Licence too.
An extra thank you to those clubs, groups and organisations getting involved and making the day special for our runners-you’ll see volunteers at various points cheering you on, so if you’re not too tired, then shout them a thank you :)
Get Involved
We like to help where we can to help keep great running events in our area... these are so important for our existing running community, and a great way for people to get active and hopefully discover a love of running!
In year one we didn't get lot of time to develop the event, were focussed on getting it back and having a great day ... but we very much plan to grow and develop the event to help support the community further :)
If you fancy getting involved this year or for future please let us now... and let's do some cool running based things together and support the local community to get active!
You can of course get involved as a volunteer - click here and fill out a volunteer form :) we would love to have you join in the party with us (and the runners!)
charity partner
We are delighted to be partnering with LIVES :)
LIVES is the charity that saves lives in Lincolnshire.
For over 25 years, LIVES Community First Responders have been at the frontline of emergency care, volunteering their own time and using their own cars—without blue lights—to respond to medical emergencies, all funded entirely by donations. In 2024 alone, they attended 2,230 patients, were first on scene 70.8% of the time, and in just one month of 2025 delivered 3,984 hours of lifesaving response. These dedicated volunteers provide rapid medical assistance and vital reassurance, saving countless lives and making a real, lasting difference to the health and safety of our communities.
Medal design 2027 shown, t - shirt coming soon!
For 2025 someone said they wanted a medal with seagulls and chips .... so now we had a medal with seagulls and chips :)
For 2026 someone said they wanted seals! ... so now we have Seals!
... who knows what will happen for 2027!
Some have said the baby seal has a look of a happy Ross Kemp, but we don't want to plant that seed in peoples head as we now only see Ross Kemp!
A BIG Thank you!
The lovely Butlins teams once again are supporting our running
adventures and providing a fantastic space to run round!
We love these guys and they've been the life and soul of our previous adventures, so it's great to be back working alongside their superb team :)
The fantastic team at Skegness Water Leisure Park are letting you
fabulous runners run around their site :)
So a HUGE thank you to these guys ... without them, we wouldn't have anywhere to run!
