Royston Runners host its annual 10 mile year end road race

This is a popular event so book your ticket as early as possible! Race start is 10:30 on Saturday 30th December 2023. A 10 mile (16 km) road run taking in the best of Buntingford and the surrounding area. Same route as 2022. Hopefully, the weather will be better this year! Link to this year's course is below. There is a cut-off of 2.5 hours (1pm). If you are running on the course after this time, you are welcome to continue. However, the marshalls and finish-line team may start to withdraw at this point. Bespoke medals issued to all finishers within the cut-off. Trophies for first finishers and age categories. We will host the women and men Hertfordshire Veterans Road Running County Championship in the same race. If you wish to compete in the Championship you must opt in on the entry form at no additional cost. Eligibility is a competitor aged at least 40 years on the day of the competition and is from Hertfordshire by birth or by 9 months residency in the county. If you are claiming residency by birth but now live outside the county, you are eligible as long as you have not competed in the county championships of this other county within the last 12 months. Winners and runner ups will be presented with their medals straight after the Buntingford 10 medal presentation. There are medals for both individuals and teams (running clubs with 3 or more Females and/or 4 or more Males).
