The hope of this event returning this year after the 2 yr gap due to Covid issues, has unfortunately been put off again for this year.
This event is very expensive to set up and requires both considerable sponsors to fund it and Marshalls to be able to run it and relies heavily on spectators purchasing tickets - the organising club has not been able to get the numbers.
It is therefore not going ahead this year

The London to Brighton Mini Run has been told by the new CP Park management team that they are no longer welcome to start from Crystal Palace park due to the events carbon footprint and air quality implications.....will this also prevent the Sprint ever happening again?

Shame, I was looking forward to going. A rare motorsport event in the most populated city can’t find enough backing or enough spectators. What a sad day and an even more sad reflection of the times.
