Time is running out to enter this year's Gloucester 10k on June 26, with organisers urging Gloucestershire business people to sign up.

Organised by Davies & Partners Solicitors and Gloucester Quays Rotary Club, the race has raised more than £60,000 over the years for charities including Young Gloucestershire and Heart Heroes.

Predominantly a flat route, the race takes runners on a sightseeing tour of the city including Gloucester Cathedral, the quays, the docks and canal, before ending at Gloucester Park.

Race director and partner at Davies & Partners Nigel Tillott said: "We are gearing up for this years Gloucester 10k on 26th June. The event is wholly run by volunteers and over the years we have raised over £60,000 for Charity . This year all proceeds will go to the Gloucester Foodbank and theGreat Western Air Ambulance Charity.

There is said to be plenty of friendly local rivalry in the race, including a corporate challenge and an inter-running club competition.

Mr Tillot added: "It is now time to get those entries in whether as an individual or a business team of 4 or more.

"We will have a new winner of the business challenge this year as multiple winners Fasthosts aren't competing, so come on businesses time to compete and throw down the gauntlet to your competitors and customers!"

The first Gloucester 10k was launched as a community event after the failure of an earlier commercial event, and 2022 marks its eighth instalment.

All runners will receive a goody bag after crossing the finish line, including a technical t-shirt, medal and goodies.
