11 April 2024 - By James Cooch

A number of members have recently been mentioning races outside UK so as a committee we have been looking at options.

So for 2024 we are heading to Benidorm and would love as many of you as possible to come along, the race is Saturday 23^rd November and you can register for either the 10K  or half marathon distance or just come along for the fun.

Based on 3 days B&B staying at the Melia hotel which is an official sponsor of the race you are looking between £300 -£400 depending on flight and room share option (excluding airport parking, transfers & spending), once registered for the race you will get a link to these special hotel rates.

	Out Friday – Return Monday
Flight  with 10KG bag	£200.00		(average)
Melia Hotel	£161.00		(£161.00 total cost single B&B room)
	£96.00		(£192.00 total cost double B&B room)
	£85.33		(£256.00 total cost triple B&B room)
Race Entry	£24.00		(€22 = 10K, €28 = Half prices till 6th June then increase  €2
Estimated cost per person (excluding transfers & parking)
Cost based on single room	£385.00
Cost each based on double room (sharing)	£320.00
Cost each based on triple room (sharing)	£309.33

To give greater flexibility it’s easier for everyone to make there own travel arrangements, there are flight options from Stansted, Luton or Gatwick (closest airport is Alicante – ALC but there is also Valencia-VLC and Murcia-RMU which are a little further out), please bring along your partners, friends, family etc the more the merrier.

If you would like help with booking flights, Steven Alder has offered to help people, so get in touch with him. Once you know what flights you’ve booked, if you add your details here I can keep a record of everyone, we might be able to arrange combined transfers or car shares.

For 2025 we will be looking at the SuperHalf series which has seen a lot of interest,  more details to follow on this soon.
