And they’re off…
Oldroyd thrilled with victory off limited preparation
The events and numbers of interest in 2023:
- Marathon (42.2 km) – is and always will be a considerable undertaking that requires an enormous amount of preparation. In 2023, 328 runners completed this iconic distance that consisted of 250 males and 78 females aged between 18 and 69!
- Half marathon run (21.1 km) – although a considerable distance, the half marathon is surprisingly doable for slightly fitter people who want to take that extra step and is the most popular event. In 2023, 892 runners completed the 21.1 km, with a relative even split of females (447) and males (445) with a spread of finish times from 1hr 9mins to 3hrs 25mins. Runners aged between 16 and 77.
The Half Marathon is not recommended for younger runners for reasons that we won’t go into here, but it’s to do with the possible detrimental effects of sustained impact on a developing body.
- 10 km run is possibly the most popular distance in road racing in the World. It is a useful target for those of you who run a bit who need a bit of a challenge. It’s also a good event for younger runners who are keen on running longer distances. In 2023, 412 completed the 10 km run consisting of 267 females and 145 males. Runners aged between 12 and 80.
- Half marathon recreational walk – in 2023, 112 completed the walk, including 91 females and 21 males. Walkers aged between 23 and 68.
- 10 km recreational walk – in 2023, 200 walkers including 167 females and 33 males completed the 10 km walk. Walkers aged between 15 and 84.
- The 5 km fun run and walk was completed by 344 people, consisting of 267, 12 years of age or older and 77 who were 11 and under. Pushchairs and wheelchairs were allowed for the first time – the youngest participant was less than a year old.
