The Senior Knole Run will take place on 16 January 2027.
Registration for 2027 is not yet open. If you have any queries, please email knolerun@sevenoaksschool.org.
The course
The course is a mixture of hill and flat, grass and woodland tracks; some sections are likely to be muddy. Spikes/studs will usually be the most appropriate footwear although pupils should bring trainers as well so as to select the most appropriate footwear on the day.
The girls’ course is one lap of 5km (3.1 miles). The senior boys’ course is two laps totalling 9.4km (5.8 miles). This year, the U15 inter boys and inter girls will race the senior girls’ course.
On the day
(Details may change for January 2027.)
Once parked, changed and having registered in the Sennocke Centre, all teams will need to walk to the Athletics track and then go through the pedestrian gate at the far side: there will be stewards on the day to help direct runners.
Girls’ teams should assemble near the start at 2.10pm for their race to start at 2.20pm. Boys’ teams should assemble near the start immediately after the girls’ start (2.20pm) in order for the inter boys’ race to start at 2:30pm, and the senior boys at 2.40pm. A warning siren will sound five minutes before each race starts.
Vest numbers contain a chip, so runners must run over the mats at the start and finish to ensure their chip is recorded. The course will be marked by staff, pupils, flags and tape.
Tea and RESULTS
Tea will be served on The Flat in the middle of the school.
The presentation of trophies and medals will be made by the Headmaster at tea: the Knole Trophy; the McGregor Trophy (for the first school not in the first three from a county other than Kent); medals for the first three individuals; medals for all members of the first three teams.
