The Richmond Castle 10k has been held on its present
course since 2002 and has grown in popularity resulting in the race limit
being reached in the last 3 years. Entry on the
day will only be available in the unlikely event of the 500 limit not being
reached in advance. The race starts in the cobbled
market place and is on all roads apart from a very short section of grass on
an area known as the Batts. Runners pass the spectacular Richmond Falls on
the River Swale before crossing the river at Green Bridge and climbing
Sleegill. A quick look over the shoulder from Sleegill offers fine views of
Richmond Castle. Runners are then taken on a short circuit of Catterick
Garrison before returning to Richmond and a grand finish within the grounds
of the castle.
The race HQ is in Richmond market hall where
refreshments will be available along with a kit stall and sports massages.
The race also has its own real ale festival which has proved very popular
with both runners and their supporters in previous years, and ales can be
purchased to take home for enjoyment later.
