Dear Club Secretary,

I am contacting running clubs in the region in order to raise the profile of the Compton Challenge (Saturday 17th May 2025) and I would be grateful if you could pass this message on to your membership.

The Compton Challenge comprises a full marathon (26.8 miles), plus a 16 mile race which start/finish on the Compton village recreation ground (Berks: RG20 6NP).

These are scenic trail races which follow a variety of tracks and paths that pass through and over the Berkshire Downs.

Please visit the Compton Harriers website (http://www.comptonharriers.co.uk/) for more details.
Best wishes,
Martin Fray (CH - Chairman)

The Baddow Races at Great Baddow are back in 2025 on Sunday 18 May

The Races will be held at the Great Baddow Recreation Ground, Great Baddow, CM2 9RL.The event will consist of a 10 Mile Road Race and a 2 Mile Fun Run.                           

The 10 Mile Race is suitable for dedicated runners. The Fun Run is suitable for less serious runners, as well as for families and children, perhaps with pushchairs, dogs and fancy dress too!

This year our combined Races team from the Chelmsford Mildmay and Chelmsford Rivermead Rotary Clubs will offer a T-shirt for all 10 Mile Race entries available to buy for £10 on the entry website. New for 2025 are children’s T shirts for £5. All T shirt orders must be received before 17 April.

This BARR Gold Standard Road Race event will provide every entrant with a runner’s pack and chip-timed numbering. Bone conduction headphones are allowed.

10 Mile winners, in categories shown on our website, will receive a trophy and all 10 Mile finishers will receive a medal.

On the Great Baddow Recreation Ground there will be stalls, children’s rides, food and refreshments, a sound stage and a warm-up exercise session.

Proceeds from the Races will support our chosen charities The Children’s Society East and Farleigh Hospice. Both Races are also an opportunity for all runners to support their own charity.

On Races Day the 10 Mile Race starts at 10 am followed by the 2 Mile Fun Run at 10.15 am

Enter now on www.baddowraces.co.uk and please check this website as Early Bird prices are available on entries until 31 March 2025.

Dear Fellow Runners,

I hope you are well. 

I’m reaching out on behalf of West 4 Harriers to share that entries are now open for the 2025 Thames Towpath 10 Mile, happening on Sunday, 6th April. It would be brilliant to see some of your members join us for this much-loved spring race along the scenic Thames, starting and finishing in Richmond’s Old Deer Park.

The course offers a great mix of riverside paths and views, making it ideal for everyone - whether they’re pushing for a time or enjoying a social start to the season. Also great for those who are training for the London Marathon. Every finisher will receive a commemorative pint glass as a keepsake from the day.

If you’d be kind enough to pass this along to your members, we’d be grateful. They can find all the details and sign up here: Thames Towpath 10 Mile 2025.

If you have any questions, please let me know.

Thanks very much for helping us spread the word, and we look forward to hopefully seeing some of your club’s runners on the start line!

Best wishes,

Adolfas Kupliauskas
Race Director
West 4 Harriers Running Club
