East Grinstead 10K 2026

The East Grinstead 10K, also known as the Andy Ripley Memorial Run, is a 10K race held in East Grinstead, Sussex. It begins at Imberhorne School at 10:00 AM. This is a community event organized by volunteers from East Grinstead Runners, with all proceeds donated to local charities. The course is flat and multi-terrain, making it suitable for both novice 10K participants and club runners seeking a local challenge. The course begins with 7km on well-maintained bridleways before transitioning to residential roads for the final 3km. Typically, between 300 and 400 runners participate, ranging from those new to the distance to experienced runners from local clubs. Marshals are stationed along the route, and a water station is provided at the 5km mark.
