The Mayflower 10k & 5k Run

The Mayflower 10k & 5k Run is a charity event held at Furze Hill, Mistley, organized by Manningtree Rotary in association with Mistley Rugby Club. Open to runners, walkers, joggers, and even dogs, the event offers a chip-timed 10k and 5k course featuring flat to undulating multi-terrain routes with regular water stations and clear signage. Participants receive medals, and a children's Old Knobbly fun run takes place in the woods.

The event is part of a larger charity fun day with stalls, rides, and family activities, supporting local and international causes. It welcomes entrants aged 12 and over, with a maximum of 2,200 participants. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
