If you are new to the event, this is a great 10K race with a history, formerly known as the Jägermeister 10K. Based in Nottingham; this is a fantastic opportunity to race within the Nottingham University campus and a great race whether you are a seasoned athlete or a beginner just starting out.

Why Do You Recommend this Race?
This little event around Nottingham uni is one of favorite summer races. Its an undulating course but a quick one that is ideal for PB's . The set up is always brilliant and the finisher tshirt is always different. I love the fact its on a Friday evening so i can go straight from work. Rather than an early morning start.

The McCain's Yorkshire Coast 10k
Recommended by: Paul Nicholls
Briefly Tell Us About the Race Format
Out and back course along Scarborough seafront. Very flat, so potential PB race. Excellent support from big crowds (some admittedly a bit bemused at people running on a Sunday morning). Sells out quick.
