Runs: 10k Road Race 04/11/2012
Our much acclaimed 10k road race will take place on Sunday 4th November, once again in and around the picturesque pathways of Cannon Hill Park.
The race has received numerous accolades for its impeccable organisation and marshalling, and has achieved a phenomenal rating of 97% on the Runners’ World website, which is regarded as the definitive website for all serious runners.
This is just one of the many positive comments we received from our 2011 race:
“Uniquely wonderful, low key event! Superbly organised and extraordinarily well catered for given event size. Friendly and helpful marshalls. Winding course on park paths with opportunity for some duck hurdling or dog vaulting for the budding steeplechasers. And for charity. A couple of sharp turns may make a pb difficult, but on the other hand, its pretty flat. Overall, it doesnt get much better for an event like this !”
