The course is a fast, scenic and undulating route taking in the glorious countryside surrounding Flitwick.  The race offers CHIP timing and all finishers receive a race memento.

As last year, 2017’s event will include a bike escort around the course, pre and post-race massage, bacon rolls and sweets to purchase.  There will be a running kit retailer on site and play activities to keep the younger spectators entertained. If you are taking part in the VLM, the Flitwick 10k is a great opportunity to test your race kit and get in the zone!

Great prizes up for grabs, a trophy for the 1^st Man and 1^st Lady home, medals to the first veteran in each age category and team prizes.

A 50 cash prize will be awarded for setting a new course record.  The Men’s current record holder is Simon Tanui 30:12 and Ladies current record holder is Jo Wilkinson 33:49. There will also be a cash bonus to the winner that takes the Flitwick 10k to a new level, men’s event sub-30, ladies event sub-33.30.

‘What a lovely scenic event! Really well marshalled, with enthusiastic and supportive people! As an aside, the portable toilets at the start/finish were a real luxury! Brilliant. Thank you - Maureen S’

‘Thank you for a fantastic event, super smooth organisation.  The most enjoyable 10k course I think I’ve ran, the undulations just seem to keep you going and so did the very supportive marshalls. Thanks – Simon J’
