The friendly atmosphere and excellent post race hospitality combined with good organisation the host club enhances the experience for participants.

This level of participant support and commercial/community sponsorship is greatly appreciated by the club as it enables the club to put on a top class event for runners which brings ever increasing numbers each year. It also helps the club provide for its younger members and contribute to the wider community through our charity partnerships.
