Living Sport's Greater Cambridge 10k

Living Sport is proud to launch the Greater Cambridge 10k delivered in partnership with the University of Cambridge. This new race will follow a unique, flat, traffic free, 2 lap course and will be based on the University of Cambridge’s West Cambridge site. The course has been officially measured and has been issued with an event permit

The start and finish for the event will be just outside the fabulous University of Cambridge Sports Centre. A change and registration zone in the Sports Hall as well as a baggage drop off facility will be available for all runners. The event will start at 10:30am on Sunday 11th September 2016 and will be supported by running store Advanced Performance and Waitrose of St.Ives.

Living Sport Sports Awards Winner Rebecca Griffiths of ‘Team Bex’ will be starting the event this year and taking part with her team. She said "Team Bex is really excited to be supporting this event. A team that began with one now has over 400 members, was formed by me to promote healthy living and also to give hope to those suffering with severe illnesses. Living Sport and Team Bex work well together as they are both about bringing people together to enjoy all sports, and promoting healthy living to all ages. We look forward to seeing you all at the 10k!”

Simon Fairhall, chief executive of Living Sport said "West Cambridge offers the perfect backdrop for a fast 10k. Whilst running through the site you will have the luxury of running on a new flat surface which is completely traffic free. Entries in the inaugural year are limited to 700 spaces and we anticipate the event to sell out fast.”

Nick Brooking, Director of Sport at the University of Cambridge said "we are delighted to be hosting this new event in partnership with Living Sport. As a Sports Centre that is open to both members of the University and the wider community, we are always eager to get involved in local events such as this that will give both beginners and the serious distance runner the opportunity to try a new race.”
