Who are we?
Martin Browne and Lynn Taylor are the names (and the faces) behind RaceBest. We run, we coach and we organise races.
We established RaceBest in 2013 to give runners and organisers more for less; a more flexible service at a lower price. Working with Phill Luby and Royd Brayshay at NewRedo, we created a contemporary, intuitive and secure online entry portal that delivers a big race presence at a small race price.
Both of us run and we are both proud members of our local running club. We run 5Ks in the park and marathons on the road, and don our club vests to race along trails, across muddy fields and up and down dales.
Both of us believe that we should give back to the sport when we can, so we volunteer our time as race marshals, club officials and run leaders.
And we organise races too, through our club and commercially. So when you bring your race entry to us, we understand what you need and can offer practical help and support.
