Royston Runners Takeover

Date

Saturday & Sunday 21st & 22nd June 2025

Where

Wimpole Estate Arrington, Royston SG8 0BW

What is it?

As part of our 40th Anniversary Celebrations we are doing a “Royston Runner takeover” weekend at Wimpole parkrun and Wimpole Junior parkrun on the 21st & 22nd of June.

The takeover means we will cover all volunteer roles for both days(apart from RD at Juniors), with Graham Boswell being our Run Director and Tina Filby being our Volunteer Co-ordinator for the parkrun.

As some of you may know this is also the weekend before Maurice Hills 80th Birthday and he is planning to run it, so a full house of marshals and a see of Black & Red running tops would be amazing to celebrate our club and one of it’s original founder members 🖤❤️🖤❤️
