SAC at the Sevenoaks 7 2025
With new management and Kent Grand Prix status, the Sevenoaks 7 attracted twice as many runners as in recent years.
The organisers and helpers, led by David Hale and Lucy Ching, did a brilliant job, and even the weather was kind.
With great support along the way, ten SAC runners were able actually to run the race including Nicola Glover sweeping up at the rear of the field.
Jake Mears, 3rd overall, and Sophie Day, 1st W35, lead the way for SAC.
The SAC results were:
