Remember pacers are for keeping pace – it is up to each runner to know the route! If you find you are way ahead or behind then hopefully our system of different pace groups will help this. Do not worry – if you try moving up a group but it is too much there will be another along to pick you up soon!! If we have enough pacers we will have two for the larger groups but this may not always be possible. You don’t have to be a run leader to help out with pacing so if you would like to give it a go please let us know!

ENTRIES NOW OPEN!!

This year we are helping out with the River Stour Festival 2018. There are many events going on and we are helping the Sturmer Village Hall committee to put on a 5k fun run! The route will be entirely off-road around the scenic River Stour and Stour Valley Path and held on Monday 28th May.

The route will be subject to a xc permit and measured to 5k. Both runners and walkers will be welcome. We will do a staggered start and there will also be a shorter option too.

Race HQ, tea, coffee and refreshments will be based at Sturmer Village Hall, 5 Rowley Hill, Haverhill CB9 7XF
