IRVINE Running Club will be hosting the annual Cyclists v Harriers festive race this Sunday, December 8.

This will be the 64th running of the race and it takes place in the Irvine club's centenary year.

This unique race will be held at 1pm, starting at Irvine Sports Club.

The event allows runners and cyclists to compete against each other across a five mile route of the Marress playing fields and Irvine Moor.

The race was started by past running club member Willie Fulton who was also a member of Fullarton Wheelers cycling club.

The event has a festive feel where all participants are asked to donate a prize to the prize table.
