May 16’s Race the Sun coastal path relay running race has been postponed for at least three months.

Organisers, the Children’s Centre, released a statement on Monday afternoon saying: ’It is with huge disappointment that we have to announce the postponement of this year’s Race the Sun.

’This is disappointing not only for us the organisers, but also for you our participants and we are sure you understand why we have had to make this decision.

’At this time we are postponing this event for at least three months when we revisit and either have a new date or will cancel the event for this year.’

Those teams already registered can claim a refund if they are unable to attend the new date.
