Tadworth 10 – 2nd January 2012

Tuesday, July 12th, 2011

Tadworth 10 is a multi-terrain 10 mile race over two laps across Epsom Downs and quiet local roads, run by friendly local running club Tadworth AC.

What better way to start the New Year and blow the cobwebs away? Or to kick start your 2012 marathon training? This year we have moved the race to a Monday to avoid New Year’s Day and the start time of 1pm is later due to racehorse training on the Downs. Race HQ is 10 mins from the start with changing, toilets and bag drop. Copious parking near HQ and near start. The race is not suitable for wheelchair athletes due to the terrain. Entries in advance or on the day subject to limit of 800.

Enter online at www.tadworth.org.uk or download postal entry form. There are prizes, including for vet runners, and finisher’s prize for everyone. Proceeds from event provide generous support for local charities.
