Aldridge 10k

437 runners completed the 10k course. Overall, 43 running clubs were represented, with the Team Trophy, for the team with the most finishers won once again by Sutton Coldfield's Sunday Running Club, with 32 finishers.

There was fierce competition for the trophies, with only 20 seconds separating the first four finishers.  Full results can be found here 

Team trophies, for affiliated clubs, with the first three finishers for each club contributing, went to:
  • Men: Tipton Harriers (Ryan Deakin, Tyler Kendrick and Thomas Hynes-Oughton)
  • Women: Tipton Harriers (Ruth Horton, Cheryl Graham and Lisa Kendrick)​

We were pleased to welcome Wendy Morton MP to start our 10k race and award the prizes.

Aldridge Running Club are proud to continue the tradition of covering volunteer positions through club members, who do not participate in the race, choosing instead to ensure the safety and success of the race, cheering and encourage others.  We were also grateful this year for the support of ex-members and friends.

We do not, however, deprive club members of the joy of Hobs Hole Lane, as we run our own races the Tuesday after the main race.

With thanks to our sponsors:

  • Specsavers, Aldridge
  • Jewellery and Gifts Ltd, Aldridge
  • Douglas Wright, trading as McDonalds
