In its 28th year this is a popular event (sold out last year) organised by Aldridge Running Club. The accurately measured, chip timed and well supported 10k and 5k races will have you digging deep on a challenging undulating course. Many runners return year after year and our event is always highly praised by those who take part
Some Facebook comments from last year
“Such a great morning, my first 10k ‘official’ run and I’ve got the bug. The event was so well organised and everyone was friendly and helpful. My kids and wife enjoyed it too. Thank you.” Shaun
“Thanks for a great event today ARC!!! The whole event just ran like clockwork. All marshals were happy and relaxed and all knew what was going on. They were so friendly and encouraging. Water stations, sponges, showers, hoses, and even encouraging words wrote on the floor at the worse points!! Clear that every detail had been thought of!! It was my first time running this but we will definitely be back next year!!! “
Lisa
“A massive well done to everyone involved with the Aldridge 10k today. Loved it! Easily one of the most enjoyable races I’ve been part of.
Every single marshal was brilliant and there was so much support all around the course. The wet sponges were a great idea and very welcome (big up to the people who had their hoses / sprinklers out too!).
You all did yourselves and the village proud!”
Stephen
“Thanks so much to everyone at ARC for a fabulous morning It’s my second year running the 10k and today’s was even better than last year. Brilliantly organised and the marshals and encouragement around the course was so inspiring 👊 Thank you!!”
