ARCHIVED RACE: Foundation for Conductive Education 10k Road Race @ Cannon Hill House, Birmingham, United Kingdom on 04 November 2012

Fantastic 10k Road Race around picturesqe Cannon Hill Park. Accurately measured course. Free carparking. All runners receive a medal and goody bag. Prizes awarded for 1st three men, 1st three women, Male veteran winners in five age categories and Female veteran winners in four age categories. OUR 10K ROAD RACE IN 2011 WAS A GREAT SUCCESS! Dominga Devitt, race organiser commented “We had a great turnout this year with 100% more finishers than last year, and many runners achieving a personal best. The weather was great, everyone enjoyed the day and we’ve had a fantastic rating on Runner’s World – it just doesn’t get much better!”
SOME OF THE COMMENTS FROM LAST YEAR’S RUNNERS : “One of running’s best-kept secrets!: Well organised, great atmosphere. You will lose a few seconds on the occasional hairpin but make no mistake, it’s a fast course. Hope they can pull in even more runners next year as it raises money for a great cause.”

“Uniquely wonderful, low key event! Superbly organised and extraordinarily well catered for given event size. Friendly and helpful marshalls. Winding course on park paths with opportunity for some duck hurdling or dog vaulting for the budding steeplechasers. And for charity. A couple of sharp turns may make a pb difficult, but on the other hand, it`s pretty flat. Overall, it doesn`t get much better for an event like this !”

“Good fun 10k, nice flat course (mostly!) Great organisation and a better goody bag than the Birmingham Great Run! Can’t be bad. A fixture for next year – i’d say so!”

“Great low key race. Lovely park, great marshalls, wonderful atmos – was my 2nd year of running and this will def become a regular fixture in my calendar.”

“Yet another fantastic race from the Conductive Education team! Brilliant low key and friendly race. Loved it! Have done it a number of times now and it is a real gem.”

“Great 10K in Cannon Hill Park. This is the second year I’ve run the Conductive Education 10K, and I think it’s a great race. It’s well organised, it’s a nice flat course – mostly around the park, so it’s a pleasant run too, and there’s cake at the end for those who like cake. I’d highly recommend this race to anyone in Birmingham – looked like a real range of finishing times this morning. I managed a PB, so am chuffed, and will be looking forward to running it again next year.”
