From a family business to a sport event powerhouse, Nice Work has been delivering exceptional running events since 1989. What started with a single race has grown to managing and delivering over 150 events a year - including the Hastings Half Marathon - and attracting more than 50,000 runners!
We're proud to work with a wide range of partners, including businesses, charities, local authorities and running clubs to deliver outstanding running events across the South East and beyond. We offer comprehensive support, from all aspects of race management to event supplies, including bespoke medals, t-shirts, branding, signage and all things event day. We know what it takes to deliver a seamless experience because we do it ourselves, almost every weekend.
Based in Rye, we live and breathe running, using our deep understanding of consumer needs to develop, optimise, and enhance every single race experience. Our events are known for their fun and inclusive atmosphere and we believe everyone deserves to feel the thrill of crossing the finish line, and you'll hear us cheering just as loudly for the final finisher as we do for the lead athlete.
