Folkestone Coastal 10K 2015

Gale force winds, low temperatures, driving rain and sheets of spume coming in off the sea greeted the runners for this ever popular race.  Despite that, the course record fell and many personal bests were registered, as over 550 runners turned out to brave the elements.

Folkestone Race For Life 2014

2500 ladies, girls and boys bedecked in pink took to The Leas once more for the annual Race for Life, in aid of Cancer Research.  £135,000 was raised and the day proved to be one of great fun, though as ever tinged with a certain sadness.

Folkestone 10 Miler 2014

Traditional Good Friday event.  Large turnout and a bit of sunshine here and there.  Highlight of the race was the sight of 'Tall Paul' Williams of Sittingbourne Striders running with an ice cream ;)  Not sure if he managed to eat it all...

Folkestone Rotary half marathon 2012

Large field, friendly bunch, no rain.  Decent race.  The lovely sunshine we had for the Folkestone 10K unfortunately didn't put in another appearance.
