We’re pleased to announce that this year we are sponsoring the Melmerby 10k run which takes place on Sunday May 25th at 11.30am. As part of our sponsorship we have provided all the bottled water for participants in the race.
This 10k race used to be part of the Yorkshire Dales Race Series and is hugely popular with runners and running clubs across North Yorkshire. The race starts and finishes in the village and is an undulating one lap route.
The race has been promoted and organised by Wath & Melmerby Cricket Club and those participating will get to see some picturesque surroundings of Melmerby (4.5 miles outside of Ripon) and enjoy some of the best countryside North Yorkshire has to offer.
Free car parking, canging facilities & refreshments are available in the Village Hall. There are also a number of prizes for class winners & places. There’s also a family fun run (2 and a quarter miles) which starts at 10.30am.
