Weston Prom Run

Following the latest government announcements (updated 23rd March) all club organised races remain suspended until further notice.

It would not be fair to our runners, volunteers or venue team to risk the spread of infection.

We would like to apologise to all our runners for the disappointment this news will no doubt bring, but the health of you all and our volunteers is paramount.

The Race Committee agreed to shorten the 2019-20 series.

In the meantime, keep healthy and keep running solo and following Government guidelines.

  • The winner of each team category will be the team with the least number of points accumulated across all six races in the Prom Run Series.

  • The Team prizes are worked out from all 6 races.

  • There are four team categories: Senior Male, Mixed, Male Vet and Female.

    Important Note:

    Note that the race number system for the 2019-20 series will be the same as the last series. All competitors who enter the series will be issued with one number for the whole series. Runners must keep their number and re-use it in all races in the series. Runners who enter on the night must still go to Race HQ prior to the race start to collect their race number. All applicants can collect their numbers from the race HQ.
