We will be looking for parents to join our merry band of officials this year….can you press start and stop on a stopwatch? – You’re qualified. Can you watch people cross a finish line and write down the order they finished in? – You’re qualified. Can you measure how far a shot put goes? You’re qualified.

Please volunteer, it is the only way we can enter leagues / meetings.

our next C25k course will be starting at 18.30 on September 17th meet in the college carpark 

Entries are filling up for the Hoburne 5 2018.

Entry fee (online or postal) is £11 (affiliated) / £13 (unaffiliated)

Our quirky beachball medal wasn’t to everyone’s taste so we are introducing metal medals this year which forces us to also raise our entry fees a bit.

The earlier start time of 10:30 should lead to less traffic where the race passes the church. This is in response to some feedback from our wonderful marshals.

This year race proceeds will go to MacMillan Caring Locally, Fortune Centre Riding Therapy and Abby’s Heroes.

Last year the race raised £2900 for good causes:

£2700 to Bournemouth Leukaemia Fund (290340)*

£200 to Cancer Research UK

* boosted by contributions from: BAE Systems £750, the Roman Group £500 and Brewers Decorating £200
