Love Running! Get all your friends and come and join us!
The location is amazing and the scenery is stunning. Running along the riverside from Richmond towards Kingston and back you have views of the river for most of the way.
Starting at the Riverside carpark off Ham Street (see course map) you will run along the riverside towards Richmond, then head back almost as far as Kingston before following the towpath back to Ham House to finish by the Riverside.
We are supporting Macmillan Cancer Support and £1 out of your entry fee will go directly to them.
If you would like to fundraise that would be fantastic, however please note this is not required for you to take part. The option is there for you and just taking part will be hugely appreciated.
So get all your friends together and come and join us. Make sure you sign up early to secure your entry as we expect this run to sell out quickly!!

ARRIVAL AND REGISTRATION
Our Richmond Riverside 10k’s in both March and October will start at 9.30am.
Registration will be open from 8.00am and will close at 9.20am so please arrive nice and early.
Race packs will be sent out to you in the post a few weeks prior to the event. These will include your race number. On the day of the event please pin this to the front of your t-shirt.
When you register on the day of the event you will receive a RACE CHIP. This will correspond with your race number. This is essential to record your time. Please make sure you put this through your shoelace and make sure it is on before the start of the event and hand back to our team once you cross the finish line.
THE EVENT
The run will kick off at 9.30am and will take you up towards Richmond where you will turn and head back down the river towards Kingston before heading back to the finish!
There is carparking at the Start/Finish point on Ham Street however this is limited so either arrive early or if possible leave the car at home!! Richmond mainline station is about 30 minutes walk. The course is along the riverside and its pretty much flat the whole way! Remember its all good fun and you can walk, jog or run!!
Please note that the start of the run will be staggered to avoid too much congestion on the towpaths. However this will not affect your time as our race timing system will record your time from when you cross the starting mat.
There will be marshals around the course to support and encourage you.
Please take care when running around the course as this is public land and local residents will be out and about. Please always stay on the left unless otherwise guided.
Results will be displayed on our race timing screen so after crossing the finish line you can check out your time!!
Drinks and fruit will be available at the finish line.
AFTER THE EVENT
Everyone will receive a medal and there are also a few trophies that are up for grabs!
Photos will be for sale from our dedicated photographer IES Photography. Here’s the link to their website www.iesphotography.co.uk
You will be able to check out your instant race results.
We look forward to seeing you at the event. It’s a stunning location and a great 10k Run. Results will be up online within 48 hours of the event completion. If you have any questions regarding the runs, please do not hesitate to contact us.

More about Macmillan Cancer Support
Why not run for Macmillan Cancer Support . This is completely optional. Remember just taking part in this run you will be making a difference but if you do decide to fundraise any amount will be hugely appreciated.
Macmillan Cancer Support improves the lives of people affected by cancer. One in three of us will get cancer. 2 million of us are living with it. We are all affected by cancer. We can all help. We are Macmillan.
As treatments improve, more and more people are living with cancer in their daily lives. This means they need more than medical help, they also need practical, emotional and financial support.
We are a source of support
We are a source of support, helping with all the things that people affected by cancer want and need. It’s not only patients who live with cancer, so we also help carers, families and communities. We guide people through the system, supporting them every step of the way. We fund nurses and other specialist health care professionals and build cancer care centres. But we give so much more than medical help.
People need practical support at home, so we provide anything from some precious time off for a carer, to a lift to hospital. People need emotional support, so we listen, advise and share information though our CancerLine, website, support groups and trained professionals. People need financial help to cope with the extra costs cancer can bring, so we give benefits advice, and grants for anything from heating bills to travel costs. Together we listen, we learn, we act to help people live with cancer.
We are a force for change
We are a force for change, listening to people affected by cancer and working together to improve cancer care. People who live with cancer are experts by experience. Together we use this knowledge to make a positive difference to the lives of people affected by cancer. This could be anything from getting a coffee machine installed in a waiting room, to bringing about changes in the law.
We fight discrimination – from challenging unfair travel costs and insurance policies to improving the national benefits system. Together we challenge the status quo, we push for change, we lead the way.
We are Macmillan
We believe we can all help. We can raise money – through marathons, coffee mornings, street collections, sponsored events. We can give time – at cancer care centres, events, fundraising groups. We can share experiences – online, in the media, with each other. We are Macmillan.
