Southport Seaside 10Km Road Race Sunday 23rd September 2018
The Southport Seaside Road Race will take place on Sunday 23rd September 2018 with a maximum of 2000 runners. The race starts at 10:30 hours in Princes Park, the runners will exit out of the park onto the footpath of Esplanade before heading along the Promenade, under the pier and along the rear of the Southport Convention Centre. The route then returns to the Promenade and runners head north onto the cycle lane on fairway before heading down Marine Drive and across Princes Park before completing a second lap. "Road Closures" To protect the runners Marine Drive will be closed from the roundabout at the top of the slip road to the beach to the rear of Pleasureland to the junction with Fairway, and the cycle track alongside Fairway. It is expected that Marine Drive will be closed from 10:00 hours until 12:30 and the Fairway cycle track will be closed during the same hours. As runners exit the sections of closed road the affected roads will be re-opened. "Effect On Club Members" Provided you arrive at WLYC before 10:00 am you will still be able to participate in the planned sailing / racing that morning.

Race For Life 5K & 10K
On Sun 3 Jun Cancer Research UK are planning 2 concurrent Southport Fun Runs: one 5 Kms and the other 10 Kms.
Both will start in Princes Park at 10am and basically run around the Marine Lake in a clockwise direction: down Marine Drive to the Fairways Roundabout back down the Promenade under the pier into Kings Gardens and back into Princes Park.
The 10Km runners will run round the course twice. Road closures are planned on Marine Drive from 9am - 12 noon While access to Ocean Plaza and the Matalan shopping area is not affected providing customers use the Marine Parade Bridge, WLYC & SSC will not be able to access the clubs until after 12 noon.
Effect on WLYC / SSC Joint One Day event.
The event organisers expect all the roads to be open by 12 noon; therefore, the Joint One Day Event that is planned for Sunday (hosted by SSC) has been cancelled
