The Redditch Kingfisher 10K is more than a race this year, in association with Raceways Events CIC and EAT STREET REPEAT we are planning a Family Fun Day.
Street food, kids fun fair and live music will keep you entertained for the afternoon.
The Redditch Kingfisher 10K returns for it’s second edition, co-hosted by Raceways Events CIC and Redditch BID!
On Sunday 29th October, the Redditch Kingfisher 10K will be returning to Redditch after a successful launch event in 2023.
Inspired by the Kingfisher Trail, the race will take runners from the town centre out through the stunning Arrow Valley Country Park and Moons Moat, on a relatively flat route, with a kick uphill before the finish in the town centre.
The event is brought to you by Raceways Events, a community interest company, who are also the organisers of the Leamington Spa Half Marathon and the nearby Alcester 10K series. The race will be co-hosted by Redditch BID, to strengthen ties with the local community, and to build a lasting legacy in the town by involving the community as much as possible through sponsorship, volunteer groups and businesses. Subway Moons Moat and Washford will also be sponsoring the race again, providing water for all runners, and cookies at the finish line!
Sam Taylor, Events Manager for Raceways, said “We are so excited to bring the Kingfisher 10K back to Redditch. Last year was a brilliant race, and it’s fantastic to be back!”.
All event finishers will receive a medal at the finish line, with T shirts an optional extra – and as with all of Raceways’ events, there will be a children’s 1km Fun Run which is free to enter.
Entries are now open – visit www.raceways.org.uk/redditch-kingfsher-10k for more details.
There will be rolling road closures throughout the race affecting Redditch town centre, full details of which can be found on the race website.
