We had a record field for the event in 2024 with both the 10K and Half Marathon selling out some weeks before race date.<\/p>\n\n<p>If you are not familiar with Bacchus and have stumbled across us, read on for details of what you can expect. Although our ethos is very much that of a 'fun run', Bacchus is a still a real running race with all the trappings of a professionally organised event: an accurate, well-marked course, fabulous medal, chip timing and full medical support, but in many ways the running is the least important part of the day. The course, which weaves in and out of Denbies Vineyard and sections of the North Downs, is stunningly beautiful but tremendously challenging too. Fast times are difficult at best, but your other impediment to a fast time is the wine, and if you are really entering into the spirit of Bacchus the fancy dress. It's quite difficult trying to run quickly in a wedding dress or carrying an inflatable dinosaur.<\/p>\n=","mainEntity=":[{"@type=":"Question=","name=":"Is it for me?
