Percy Pud 10K

£22.00

3rd December 2017 at 9:30am

Entries closed

 

We organise South Yorkshire’s most popular 10km each year which takes place on the first Sunday in December.

The event has grown in popularity from the first race in 1993 when 600 finished the race to recent years when the entry has had to be limited to around 2,700.

Such is the demand for numbers that in each of the last 10 years the race has sold out ahead of time.

Why is it so popular? Traditionally each finisher in the race receives a Christmas pudding for their efforts. Food and seasonal music are provided after the race. Of course, the route is not bad either.

For many, the Percy Pud signals the start of Christmas.

PRIZES:
1st Male and 1st Female To receive a Trophy, Vouchers, plus this year a Magnum bottle of Champagne
and a large Mathew Walker Christmas Pudding.

Male 2nd-10th and Female 2nd-7th To receive a Trophy, Vouchers and a bottle of Champagne.
