Penkridge Fun Run and Fun Day
The Penkridge Fun Run returns for 2026, hosted by the Penkridge Round Table. The event features a course that begins and ends at Penkridge Middle School. This community event is open to participants who wish to run, jog, walk, hop, skip, or push their way along the route.
The event utilizes a marshalled course supported by local volunteers. Participants are tracked using timing chips, and both race numbers and chips are collected on-site on the day of the event. Safety and medical support are provided by St. John's Ambulance. Because the course is located on school grounds, dogs are not permitted on the site, with the exception of guide dogs.
Finishers receive a medal upon completion of the course. Competitive elements include trophies for male and female winners across several age categories:
- Under 9s
- Under 13s
- Under 18s
- 18-49
- 50+
A dedicated prize is also awarded for the best runner in fancy dress. While there are no drinks stations along the route, refreshments and entertainment are available for both runners and spectators at the school site. Toilet facilities are available for participant use. Limited disabled parking is provided at the school, though the organizers suggest alternative travel or local parking for most attendees. All junior runners in school year four and below are required to be accompanied by an adult. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
