New This Year: Youth Team Relay and greater opportunities for Sponsorship!
Yes, back by popular demand this is the only race of its kind in the country. Take the opportunity to run, walk or stagger a mile from Greenfield to The White Hart, pay for the privilege and raise money for charity, all at the same time!
Choose your weight - 20, 10, 5 or 2kg for individuals, depending on age.
For children there is a spud and spoon race from Sand Road to the finish line, Tatties In A Bucket and Design A Potato Head competitions!
Prizes and trophies, plus medals for all!
Timings are approx midday to 13:00, in time for lunch & prizes.
You can even entertain royalty at home - take the King Edwards or Jersey Royals home after the race!
All profits to go to charities and local projects, but if you want to run for your own charity, see 'Entry Forms' page for a sponsorship form.
