‘This was my first race and what a glorious day! The course was good fun to run and the marshals were friendly, helpful and encouraging! I will be back next year. I enjoyed the run and hope to improve on my time next year!’
‘This was my first 10k race, and was a local one for me. Very low key and friendly. Would definitely recommend and will do again!’
‘2nd year of doing it - still think it's one of nicest ones to do - looking forward to next year already’
‘First Km was great, nice and fast, and the Last 2km finally found a suitable surface for quickish running on. The hill at km9 was a breeze….’
‘We enjoyed the day very much and we look forward to the next year's.’
‘Many thanks for organising a great event!’
‘Just a note to say a big thank you once again for a great Longworth 10K’.
‘I do the run regularly with four other plodders and we all agreed (over a pint in the Blue Boar afterwards) this is our favourite event of the year. The organisation was first class, the people are always friendly, the stewards helpful and the sun always seems to shine.’
‘I did the race with my boyfriend and my father and we all had a great time - and thoroughly enjoyed it - so thank you very much. We will definitely partake next year!!’
Don’t just take their word for it: come and try Oxfordshire’s friendliest and most scenic 10k for yourself!
2010 date likely to be second/third weekend in September: we’ll decide once we know dates of other potentially competing local runs. Likely to confirm April/may: watch this space for details!
