welcome
A Well-Balanced Programme THE PORT Sunlight 10K/5K/1K and Liverpool Half Marathon in March sees the start of an events programme that continues with the Mersey Tunnel 10K, Tour Of Merseyside and the Wirral Half/10K before rounding off with our Festive special - the hugely popular and colourful Santa Dash. Our programme has developed over a number of years with a bit of tweaking here and there, and we now have a series that caters for the whole of the Liverpool running community across the 12 month period.
Run For The 96 5K WE HAVE five new events scheduled for 2015. And we’re expecting that 19 April will be special as we stage the first Run For The 96 5K at Liverpool’s Stanley Park. The community event is the brainchild of Dom Williams, who created the Hillsborough-Anfield Run. Organisers hope the new 5K will develop as a legacy run to remember those lost in the Hillsborough tragedy. We’re also adding the Hale 5 Mile on Easter Sunday (5 April); a kids’ race series for 1K/2K/3K on 28 June; 12-Hour Team Relay on 2 August; and 26-mile Whistle Stop Tour Of Wirral from 11 to 13 September.
Staying Positive
WITH SO MANY good things happening on the Merseyside running scene it’s difficult to touch on one negative development in 2014. There has been wide publicity for the eleventh hour billing of BTR Liverpool for lost car parking revenue - an additional cost of £11,000 which appeared out of the blue just a few weeks before the Santa Dash and was accompanied with a warning that the race wouldn’t go ahead unless payment was made. Any business facing unexpected costs like these is going to flinch and BTR Liverpool were no different. Thanks to massive support from the running and wider community, Liverpool City Council is reviewing the charges and we’re now working towards a bumper Santa Dash in 2015 and making sure we stay ahead of those pesky Yanks in Vegas.
