Frome Running Festival – Half Marathon, 10k & 5k
18th August @ 9:00 am
COME AND JOIN US AT THE FROME RUNNING FESTIVAL, A NEW EVENT TO RUNTHROUGH, AND RUNTHROUGH’S FIRST EVENT IN SOMERSET IN SUPPORT OF DOROTHY HOUSE HOSPICE CARE!
We’d love you to join us for our 5k, 10k and Half Marathon Running Festival around Frome Town Centre, starting and finishing on the Old Showfield.
All courses start and finish on the Old Showfield, Frome’s biggest open green space, and head out into the town’s picturesque historic centre, with closed road routes throughout.
The courses follow a road closed single loop circuit, with the Half Marathon route heading out around Frome town centre and the Somerset countryside, heading past the English Heritage site of Nunney Castle, and the 10k & 5k routes stay within Frome itself.
This Run Britain/UKA licensed, officially measured race is open to runners of all abilities, and is well established in the community from previous organisers.
Voted one of the best events in the UK by runners in the independent Racecheck Awards in 2019 – there’s nowhere quite like Frome for an unforgettable run.
Welcoming first-time runners, experienced athletes, and everyone in between, you’ll find people of all paces to keep you feeling strong as you take in the sights of the fabulous routes through rural, residential and town centre streets.
The final glorious mile sweeps through the town centre heart of Frome with a huge downhill curve that will set your hairs on end, with goosebumps carrying you through to the finish line.
Early Bird Entry Fees –
5k – £28.00
10k – £30.00
Half Marathon – £34.00
