The 7 Pools run has a history of more than 25 years. Many runners in the area have their own memories of this run, which is possibly one of the most challenging cross-country course in the West Midlands and provides a test for serious runners and for those who run purely for pleasure and fitness. Other more regular runs in Sutton Park are shorter, at 5km, whereas the 7 Pools course is 10km, the majority off-road and over undulating terrain. All entrants will have their times recorded which will be available on our website. All runners will receive a memento for their efforts. The 7 Pools run presents an opportunity to raise money for KIDS in Sutton Coldfield, a charity that provides a wide range of services to disabled children, young people and their families in England.
