Whats New for 2018? #5
We are delighted 23m will be at the Haywards Heath 10K and Burgess Hill 10 Mile events in their Vintage Mobile Van cooking up some tasty gourmet burgers for all you hungry runners and spectators!
About 23m Burger Service
23m is a mobile Gourmet Burger van based in Sussex. We cook and serve our seasonal Burgers from our 1975 Citroen H Van. “A rewarding part of our 23m philosophy is to journey around Sussex meeting our suppliers, seeing the land, production areas and shops that they work from. We get to meet their families and the people that work for them and see the commitment and passion that creates their produce. Its an important part of the food chain that we aim to share with you through stories on our website and our through food!”

Calling charitable causes to get involved!
The Mid Sussex Marathon Weekend is a community- focussed event and each year we try to engage more local people and groups to be involved.
It provides a great opportunity for fund-raising groups and charitable causes to have a presence and raise their profile. So, if you would like to be involved then we look forward to hearing from you.
Whats New For 2018 #4
The Mid Sussex Marathon Weekend is now all set to include 9 events and we are excited to announce the popular Haywards Heath 10 Mile will follow a new route.
The 2 lap format will continue to start on South Road but a new section of the route has been designed to take runners through Beech Hurst Gardens and Bolnore Village to avoid the busy Traunstein Way, providing a safer route for participants and volunteer marshals.
The East Grinstead 10 Mile and Burgess Hill 10K routes will remain the same.
