Acorn Bank 10k
Eden Runners are delighted to be hosting, for the 6th year running, the Acorn Bank 10k. Same course, same fantastic atmosphere…
The race starts and finishes in the beautiful grounds of the Acorn Bank National Trust Property and is an undulating road race that will suit all abilities. The race route is an accurately measured 10K route, registered with RunEvents & England Athletics, and runs along country lanes and tarmac footpaths. Eden Runners are very proud to, once again, be donating £2 from each entry towards conservation projects at Acorn Bank.

Parking, race registration and toilets are in the grounds of Acorn Bank. Parking will be coordinated by parking marshals so please follow their instructions and please do not park on the race route! There is a suggested donation of £5 per car for parking which includes entry on the day to the Acorn Bank estate, gardens and house. This is suggested for both NT members and non-members as the charge is connected to the event.
