Organiser's Description

 

University of St Andrews Athletics and Cross Country presents…

 

The St Andrews West Sands 5k!

 

Our annual beach race is back! If you fancy

  •          December temperatures when it’s only September
  •          Being battered by winds delivered straight from Norway
  •          Sand, sand and more seemingly infinite sand

then why not come and enjoy St Andrews’ most famous beach?
