Road Running

For basic information on the Berkshire County Road Running Championships, please see link "https://www.berkshireathletics.org.uk/content/how-enter-county-championships

Currently the road running champs are being covered by a committee member for the champs to continue next year we need someone from a club to come forwards and take on the role of road running manager.  Please contact secretary@berkshireathletics.org.uk if you are interested in this role.

For the road running championship, each year 5 races are nominated covering a variety of different distances over the calender year. These races will range from 5k to marathon.  For each race, medals will be awarded for the first three finishers in each age and sex category, with points also awarded for the overall Championship Trophy which is awarded each Novmeber at the County AGM.

For the points championship, and this is new for 2023, your top 4 results will count (from a possible 5 races).

In order to keep this interesting, at least one of the races will be replaced each year. Having different races and distances each year, and the option to do 4 from 5, will hopefully make these Championships more inclusive. The races chosen will all be in Berkshire.

Entries open on January 1st 2024.
