The Coastbuster, organised in partnership with race management company Nice Work, will be held at Government Acre, Ramsgate, on May 8.

There will be two race distances to choose from, a 10k or a 10 mile option, and both follow a similar route on coastal roads in and around Ramsgate and Broadstairs

There will also be a 1k children’s race held prior to the main race. That will be aimed at under 15s  and starts at 9.30am.

The main races start from Government Acre along the Royal Esplanade in Ramsgate at 10am. The routes heads to Broadstairs and then turns back to Ramsgate. Both races will be chip timed and there will be bespoke medals for all finishers.

Trophies will go to the leading runners in both races plus age categories for the 10 mile race.
