Childrey Invitation Fun-Run 2015

Saturday 20 June 2015 at 14:30


Many thanks to those of you who have responded to say that you are going to take part in this year's 5k and 10k runs; I've added you to the list already.

I'm about to have a mad couple of weeks at work and so I'd like to get the medal and trophy orders completed by the end of this week.

If you are intending to take part, can I please ask that you register using this link before Friday 05 June. This will allow me to have a good idea of numbers and you can then sign the form (and hand over your entry donation) on the day.

If you missed the original email with all the entry details you can find a copy in my previous blog post.

And if you really want to download the form, fill it in and put it through my door, you can download it here.

I look forward to seeing you on the day.

...and if you aren't yet on the mailing list, you can sign-up here

2015 Childrey 5k and 10k fun runs

Childrey Invitation Fun-Run 2015

Saturday 20 June 2015 at 14:30


Entries for the Childrey festival of running are open. The Childrey 5k and 10k will be on Saturday 20 June, the day of the Childrey Church Fête.

Now in its eighth year, the event will once again be an informal 5k and 10k fun-run with children invited to take part in the 5k.

As usual, this is a group of us going out for a run together over an agreed course. There will be no marshals or drinks stations and the roads won't be closed, although the route will be marked. Most importantly, you will be running at your own risk. As a result, all children (anyone under 16) must be accompanied by an adult (no more than two children per adult please).

Entry will be on a first-come-first-served basis with the field limited to a maximum of 30 runners.

The race briefing will be in front of the Playing Field Pavilion at 14:15. The 10k will start at 14:30 and the 5k at 14:40, with the finish for both races in the grounds of Childrey Manor.

The prizes will be awarded at around 15:30 as part of the Fête; there will be a medal for all finishers and prizes for first man and woman in the 10k, and adult and children’s winners in the 5k.

There will be parking available on the Playing Field for those who need it and ample refreshments available from the Fête afterwards.

Entry will be by way of a donation (£10 adults, £5 children, cash only) to the Fête which needs to be returned to the address on the entry form no later than Monday 15 June. Race numbers will be handed out on the day.

I look forward to seeing you there.
