The Great Weston 5
Probably the greatest multi terrain 5 mile run in the UK
Nobody said it was easy!​
History-
The Weston 5 was the brainchild of local 'athlete' Tom Pomeroy. Together, with other keen local runners/joggers/shufflers, a fun run was organised to coincide with the annual May Day Fair. From just a handful of participants in 2000 (mainly under duress), the race now attracts up to 380 affiliated, non-affiliated and purely fun-runners today. The premise is one of- fun first, run second.
​
The Weston 5 has consistently been rated in the top 100 UK runs in Runners World
The route-
​A scenic run along quiet country roads with approx 1.5 miles of hard surface tracks through the fields from Sulgrave back to Weston. Be ready for the hill at the end!
​
Your safety-
Is paramount. Stewards will be along the whole course and all will be in radio or mobile contact with our on-site organisers and medical team. Water is also available at the 3 mile point.
