New for 2025, our Gunpowder Plot 10k event is now The Gunpowder Plod. A multi-distance event on the previous 5k loop. This time runners have the option to run 1, 2 or 3 loops and can choose on the day before or during the run, how many loops to complete. The majority of the loop is on the paved service track with approx 1k of each loop on grass.There are no time cuts offs and the event is suitable for both experienced and new runners.
We will also be hosting our popular family fun run before the main event and this will be a 1 mile loop on grass. Parents/friends are welcome to run along with younger runners, but must enter the event if they would like to earn their own medal. Timing of the events will allow parents to complete the fun run before taking part in the main event.
All runners and fun runners will receive a Gunpowder Plot themed bespoke medal (new for 2025) and chocolate goodies and there will be homemade cake at the finish for all.
The race HQ is at Hamilton Panthers Clubhouse; there are toilets, changing facilities and hot drinks for sale.
Free, on street parking is available along Knavesmire Road and Racecourse Road. Cycle storage is available at the race HQ.
Our events are all cupless. Please bring with you a labelled bottle/cup. There will be tables provided you can leave your bottle at the start/finish area which can be accessed each lap. We will have an aid station and will be happy to fill your bottles before, during or after the event with water or squash.
Final event information will be e-mailed out to everyone the week before the event and registration and bib pick up will be on the morning of the event.
