Thank you for considering an entry for the Poole 10k the race is two laps around Poole Park and Baiter Promenade.  Over the years the Festival of Running, that you will be taking part in, has grown in size and importance and now ranks as one of the most significant road running events in the South.  The main race, in previous years, has been awarded the BARR gold grade and now attracts a capacity field of 1,000 runners before race day each year.

The Minithon/youth races are probably unmatched anywhere in southern England outside the London Marathon day.  They also regularly attract around 1,000 youngsters and have been the springboard for athletes such as Charlotte Moore and Louise Damen who now represent England and Great Britain.

Many thanks to our sponsors.  This year's event is again raising funds for the Julia's House, Poole's Children's Hospice.  Please may we ask that you attempt to raise some monies through sponsorship as just £5 per runner would equal £5000 towards Julia's House!

This year the 5k is open to all runners 15 years and over and club runners!
