Raw Energy Pursuits Ltd was formed in 2003 and Raw Running Ltd was formed in 2018. We stage a number of events each year and have a vast amount of experience in organising events and advising clubs and companies about organising their own top quality events.
Mick Dicker was originally a member & Chairman of Horsham Amphibians Triathlon Club and was the Race Director for their popular SE Relay Triathlon for a number of years before developing other events. He was also a Team Leader at London 2012 Olympics for the cycle road races and the triathlons. Debbie Boxall is our Event Manager and has been competing for many years in various different sports.
We regularly attract close to 4000 competitors each year. Our race locations are second to none; based in West Sussex, we have the benefit of not only being on the South Coast but also have the South Downs National Park on our doorstep. We host a number of events on private estates including the Angmering Park Estate (Bluebell Trail Runs) & the Norfolk Estate at Arundel (Arundel Lido Triathlon & Arundel Triathlon) and we’ve previously held events on the Firle Estate near Lewes and a number of corporate sportives for Xchanging and the JLT Condor Pro Cycling Team with Ed Clancy OBE at Parham House in West Sussex. We’ve also organised a women’s only ride from Nice to Monte Carlo. Our most recent gem of a location is the Cowdray Estate in West Sussex, where we’re lucky enough to work with their great team in delivering ‘Run the Seasons’ trail events. On the running front, we were the organisers of Firle Half Marathon near Lewes, East Sussex and part of the organising team for the South Downs 100 mile Relay.
We cater for all abilities, from complete beginners to competitors trying to qualify for World or European Championships. REP has had the privilege of hosting ITU & ETU qualifying triathlons, three National Aquathlon Championships, National Ranking Events & numerous local events. We delivered the original Vachery Triathlon Festival & Xterra World Championship qualifier for Brave Events and set up the the first three Haslemere Triathlons with Haslemere Border Athletic Club and the Haslemere Festival
Members of REP have been competing in various events for over 31 years and have raced all around the UK in addition to numerous World Championships and have clocked up over 30 Ironman finishes between us. We know what a represents a good event, our T-Shirts are legendary and most of our events include free unlimited race photos, bespoke medals and electronic timing. We are always happy to hear athletes’ comments and views.
REP can offer race equipment for hire at very competitive rates. So whether you need racking for up to 625 competitors, heavy duty matting, PA system, signage or anything else then please drop Mick a line at info@rawenergypursuits.co.uk for further information.
