This is a 10km run on mixed terrain through the villages and lanes around the village of Orston in Nottinghamshire. In 2024 this event will take place for the 7th time. The previous runs have been in beautiful spring sunshine with a great atmosphere amongst the competitors and volunteers. This year there will be medals for all runners and prizes for the first male and female runners in both events. We have also gained a reputation for serving up delicious cake free to all runners after the event!
We are affiliated to runbritain (as we have been in previous years) and will have a race adjudicator present on race day. Please note that the total distance of this run is slightly more than 10km but as it is mixed terrain it is stilled classed as a 10km run under runbritain guidelines.
This year Seasons Best Sports Timing will be our official race timers. They are a Sports Timing Company based in Doncaster. They use the best timing equipment in the game My Laps which is used at The World Marathon Majors and Great Run Series to ensure that everyone know matter what pace gets a time.
