5K Race Update

This year, our event will feature the 10K race only, and unfortunately we won’t be running the 5K distance. With a limited number of participants in the 5K distance last year, along with a limited number of volunteers available to safely support both routes, we’ve made the decision to focus our efforts on delivering a fantastic 10K event for 2027.

We know the 5K was enjoyed by many runners in 2026, and we’re sorry not to be able to offer it this time around. Thank you for your understanding and for continuing to support our community event and, most importantly, our local school. We hope to see lots of you at the start line for the 10K!
