Should it be in a particular region or date, based on where you live or on holiday?

Hi,

If you’re looking for events in the Midlands there is the Solihull Half Marathon on August 14th. Not one I’ve done but the route looks nice.

Hi ness.. thats a good shout ( Solihull.. very posh) thanks mate.. just noticed your local to me.. can I recommend Aldridge 10k in july? It's our club run so I can't do. Also, fradley 10k as got to be one of the best 10ks in the country .

Thanks, UF.

I’m considering having a go at a 10k after my spring half marathon so the Aldridge one would possibly fit in really well.

I did Aldridge 10k a few years ago, it absolutely poured, can't remember much else except the start and finish, I think I quite enjoyed it despite getting drenched.

Here are my notes:

Aldridge 10k, a very wet and a bit undulating course, last mile had a very long drag of a hill, finished with about 400m on wet grass, never planned to race so pretty ok with the time.
