The Totnes 10K Race and Fun Run is a must-attend annual event organized by the Teignbridge Trotters Running Club. Scheduled for Sunday, August 4th, 2024 at 11 am, this year's event boasts an updated off-road course that offers both challenge and scenic views by the River Dart. Borough Park will be the nerve center of the race, with Totnes Leisure Centre serving as the Race Headquarters for the day, complete with all the facilities participants could need during the event.
Participants can anticipate competitive action across various categories, with prizes up for grabs for the top male and female finishers, as well as for leading runners in different veteran age groups. Special recognition awaits U18 participants and the top men's and women's teams, while all finishers will receive a unique medal and a chance at other exciting prizes.
Given the event's popularity, the Totnes 10K Race maintains a strict cap at 625 participants, so early sign-ups are advisable to secure a spot. The entry fees remain at £16 for affiliated runners and £18 for unattached participants, with a reminder that headphones are not permitted during the race.
In addition to the main race, a 1-mile Fun Run around Borough Park caters to a wide range of age groups, promising a fun and safe running experience for all involved. Prizes will be presented to the top male and female finishers in various age categories.
On-site refreshments will include the beloved Trotter cakes and a BBQ offering hot dogs, burgers, and bacon baps for hungry participants and spectators alike. This event proudly supports Totnes Caring, a local charity dedicated to helping the elderly in the area, with event proceeds aiding their important work. Live race commentary, a professional PA system, medical support, and a vibrant atmosphere make the event a delightful experience for all involved.
