The Spitfire Scramble is a 24-hour multi-terrain relay or solo race. You can run on your own or in teams of two to eight runners. As you run through the night, the event will put your speed, endurance, torch batteries and teamwork to the test in the only event of its kind in the London area.

About your fee: The first £10 per person of your fee is to cover the run itself, the course for which includes sections under the custodianship of the London Borough of Havering and some parts under the stewardship of Forestry England.

The remainder of the entry fee per person is to cover the race bib and timing system, parking, camping, medical care, site security and your event T-shirt and medal, which is all provided to you on the Event Village site made available to us by the London Borough of Havering.

The event will start at midday when your 'squadron leader' begins your first 5.75-mile lap. As a team you will not stop again until midday the next day. Each squadron can have a maximum of one runner on the course at all times and runners must complete a full circuit before handing over to a team mate. Full rules here.

​

Runners and their supporters can begin arriving from Friday afternoon to set up camp, familiarise yourselves with the course and soak up the atmosphere. Camping is free! Catering, toilets and hot showers will be available, along with sports massage service and first aid.
