All you need to know about Pontefract 10K as it returns next month
Thousands of runners will flood Pontefract Park next month as Pontefract 10K returns.
The annual event is a staple within the town, with racers running through Pontefract to raise vital funds for a variety of charities.
This year, the race will take place on Sunday, May 17 at 9am, in Pontefract Park.
The official route will see racers travel down Park Lane, up Cutsyke Road and into Ackton before travelling back to Pontefract Park, through North Featherstone.
A water station will be situated at the halfway mark, with another at the finish line.
Race numbers will be available to collect that morning at Race HQ – which will be located in front of the entrance to the racecourse stands.
Also in this area will be the first aid tent, toilets and numerous food and drink stalls.
Because of road closures, participants that are driving in are encouraged to park in the town centre and walk to the start line.
