The Course

The race is an out-and-back course run on closed roads on picturesque, quiet country lanes from Alderton, past the hamlet of Great Washbourne where it turns just before the A46 at Beckford. 

The course is fairly flat and is ideal for clocking a good 5k time.

Post-race massage

Picture
Provided by Becky from www.glos-sportstherapy.co.uk in exchange for donations to Alderton Acorns a post-race sports massage will help you to recover from the race, flush out the lactic acid build-up, reduce post-exercise soreness and improve blood flow to tight muscles. Sounds good to us! 

Family entertainment 

Picture
The Alderton 5k is family friendly with Alderton Acorns' friendly, qualified staff providing outdoor games, activities and fun for the little ones before, during and after the run. And if that's not enough new for 2018 Alderton Playing Field also has a nice shiny new playground!

Tea & Cake

Picture
A full range of refreshments including teas, coffees and soft drinks are available to keep your supporters refreshed while you run. You can also concentrate on your run without worrying that there won't be enough cake left at the end for you - because there will be!
