Edgbaston Fun Run

This year sees the return of the Edgbaston Fun Run held in conjunction with the Harborne Carnival on Sunday 28th June. There are three runs aimed at 7–15 year olds and this year we have included a Family Run, which will be held on a traffic free Harborne High Street.

We are currently distributing entry forms to schools, community and leisure centres and other outlets across the Constituency. We would like to see as many schools as possible competing and enjoying this event.

The event will start by the BP garage and finish at the end of the High Street. The course is approximately 1000 metres long and offers youngsters and families a chance to participate in a fun event which seeks to promote healthier lifestyles.



There will be 4 runs in total one for each of the following age groups:

9.45am Under 10 yrs (at 31st August / 1st September 2009)
10.00am Under 12 yrs (at 31st August / 1st September 2009)
10.15am Under 14 & 16 yrs (at 31st August / 1st September 2009)
10.30am Family Run All ages


All finishers will receive a medal, for their efforts.

The entry fee is £2.00 per participant which goes towards the organisation of the event and also makes a contribution to the “Edgbaston Foundation” which promotes community, arts and sports development. The closing date for postal entries is June 10th but we will be taking entries on the day.
