BEDFORD 10km & 5km MCTF Run The Track
The event is a track-based running competition held on Sunday 30th August at Bedford International Athletic Stadium, Bedford MK41 9SB. It offers measured races on a proper athletics track with deliberately limited fields and heats arranged by expected finishing time so runners are grouped with similarly paced competitors.
Timing is electronic and detailed: personal split-lap chip timing records each lap, and overall chip timing produces an official finish time. Every finisher receives a bespoke medal specific to the series. The track surface removes traffic and road hazards, providing flat, consistent conditions for lap-based running.
Entry details include listed fees and charges. Standard entry amounts are:
- 5 km race, fee £17
- 10 km race, fee £23
Additional costs noted are a £2 levy for non UK Athletics members and a 6% booking fee. Entries close on 29th August. The format emphasizes lap-by-lap pacing and a small field environment, with racing focused on measured distances and split times rather than course navigation.
