This event will take place on Tuesday 27th. This is an ideal venue to chase a fast time as the course is pancake flat and on smooth tarmac. The race will be run under a full UK Athletics License and each course has been officially measured and has a certificate of course accuracy. The race will also be chip timed and results published on Power of 10.
The Open Races will begin at 11:30am, starting with the a 1mile race and 1mile Family Fun Run. If you have entered a race later in the evening you are welcome to join in the Fun Run to encourage family and friends!
After that we’ll be having the Open 5k and 10k race.
With a traffic free, tarmac course with no sharp bends, we are certain that there will be a whole bunch of proud new PB’s! The closed road circuit is perfect for all standards, no matter whether you are chasing a lightening quick time, a beginner or a junior (minimum age requirements detailed below).
