Our TRR Club Races for 2026 include the Witham Mayday 10 and the Springfield Friday Night 5.
Finish Line Fund Virtual Relays – this year’s virtual event takes place on Saturday 11 April 2026 from 9:30am. Each runner runs as far as they can in 30 minutes, with distances combined to contribute towards the team total. Runners can complete their run anywhere they like, then share their distance with our team captain, Claire White, so the results can be collated. If you’re interested in taking part, please join our chat group to register your interest with Claire (see link to group in TRR Community Announcements on WhatsApp).
The Ekiden Relays are on Sunday 5 July 2026. Chris Gardiner has started to gauge interest – please see the message on the TRR Community WhatsApp Announcements page.
