What’s On …

  1. Thornbury 10k

Thanks to everyone involved in organising the 10k (Ros, Jo & Arthur) and to everyone who marshalled. We had 250+ entries and 162 finishers. James Harrod won and set a course record of 34:50.  This was the first year for this event so we would really appreciate your feedback. You may not marshal the same spot next year so comments on safety and traffic would be helpful please. For example, at the spot where I was the group of us had to improvise as conditions and traffic on a Thursday night were different from the Sunday morning trial. Any comment to captain@thornburyrunningclub.co.uk

  1. Mob Match 14/8

Thursday 14th August Club night will be a mob match vs Chepstow. It’s a 5k in Oldbury to allow everyone can take part. Details here. Please enter here, we need your details for the chip timing. Run followed by (free) cakes and a beer (not free) at The Anchor, what’s not to like!
