Striders Favourite Running Routes

Bo Peep Bostal

A testing run of about nine miles that takes you up onto the downs north of Seaford. The first half is mostly uphill, the second mostly downhill, and there are fine views over the downs.

10K Route

10KM loop starting and finishing from the Downs Leisure Centre.

Itford Farm Circular

This a testing run of around 16 miles that takes you out along the Ouse riverbank  to Itford Farm, then up onto the Downs before returning to Seaford.  The first half of the route is fairly flat, while the the second half contains a steep climb, before taking you over the rolling slopes of the South Downs Way.
