The May 5 is a great, local, 5 mile race around Canford Heath, Poole, Dorset. It offers something for everyone and with a start and finish at Ashdown Athletics Track, it’s the perfect place to cheer your runners in! Compete for fun, or test yourself against fellow club members or even other clubs.
Race start time: 9.00 am
NOTE: Entrants must be 15 or over on race day. No dogs, buggies or headphones will be permitted during the race.
The race is organised by a willing band of volunteers. This includes staff, parents and friends of the school.
We enjoy organising the race and welcome all runners, who have always been friendly ‘clients’ in the race. Any funds made in the 2025 race will go towards funding items for the children of the school. Course details, along with entry details are available on this website.
The proceeds from 2013 – 2015 have enabled us to partially refurbish the school library. We have purchased sofas, enhanced the range of non-fiction books on offer and the library has been re-painted to make it a more welcoming area. In 2016 the monies raised for the school went towards rejuvenating the school swimming pool.
The race brings the community of runners to the school, raises money and promotes sport.
The running family is full of some great people and we would like to extend a very warm welcome to as many of you as possible in 2025.
