Beverley Braves Fun Run
Sponsored by Viking Pest Control
Saturday 14 June 2025 register from 10:15am
A fun run is a non-competitive, enjoyable footrace, often organized to raise money for charity. Participants are encouraged to run, jog, or walk at their own pace, with the focus on participation and having fun, rather than achieving a specific time or placing.
- Registration from 10:15am
- 10.55am short briefing for runners
- 11.00am Race Start
- 12.00 Approx Finish
Location & Course
The course is a decent 2.5k loop, and for those doing the 5k run, you’ll just need to go round twice. If you’re a bit younger or just finding your feet with running, one lap or two is absolutely fine.
Start/Finish is located at the top of Walkington Road. This is where you will need to register
