The Race
Cheshire Road Race Grand Prix Event 2012 (race 3)
The 2012 10k Race
Whitley 10k is organised by the Whitley Village Hall Race Committee. The race follows an accurately measured course through beautiful Cheshire country lanes, with chip timing.
There will be prizes for 1st, 2nd and 3rd-placed men, women, and veterans, as well as a medal for every finisher.
Whitley 10k is run under UKA rules, so runners must be at least 15 years old on race day.
Whitley Fun Run
There will also be a fun run, which starts a few minutes after the main 10k race, and follows a 4.7km / 2.9 mile course (not accurately measured) - perfect for the beginner or younger runner.
