THERE is still time to sign up for next week’s Wiltshire 10 race on Sunday 11th February in Melksham.
The run starts in Lowbourne Road and takes a certified accurate 10-mile course out around the historic village of Lacock before returning back to finish alongside the River Avon in King George V Playing Fields.
Last year former England 10K champion Daniel Studley of Bristol & West AC shattered the course record with a time of 49-minutes with ladies race winner Ruth Barnes of Avon Valley Runners recording 56-minutes to record one of the fastest times in Britain over the distance in 2017.
Organiser Darren Wrintmore said, “However it is not just at the sharp end that the race holds appeal as we expect over 500 runners to complete the course and all will receive a specially minted medal and a goody bag. Prizes will also be on offer to the first three men and women to complete the course, as well as to the winners of the V40, V50 and V60 age categories.”
