PAST WINNERS – CLASS S
1983 – present
To win this class, a team of four (with three walking each section) has to cover approximately 25 miles in the fastest time.
Originally, the route was from Steyning Bowl to Littlington, a distance of approximately 40 miles. In 2003, the route was changed and considerably shortened to run from Bignor to Devil’s Dyke (25 miles). The maximum age was also reduced at this time to 14 years 6 months to reflect the changes made in POR at that time.
In 2015, the route was changed again to the current format. Once again in 2018 the route was adjusted, the distance was maintained but moved east to simplify road crossings. In addition rules around running were clarified with a new award, the pegasus plate, being offered to the team that completed in the fastest time without running.
