Some events in which Steyning AC participate:

West Sussex Fun Run League (WSFRL) – from 5km to 10km with many events over the South Downs. A wide variety of paces, so all are welcome at any speed. Scoring incorporates ‘performance’ points with 10 for each of the first 10% finishers, 9 for the next 10% of finishers etc, and EVERY runner scores 1 participation point for their club (to a maximum of 25), so just taking part earns the club points.
