THANK YOU
What an incredible day at the Run Kibblestone 5!
Firstly, we'd like to say a huge thank you to Ken Rushton for once again providing the professional race timing. Your support and dedication helped make the event run smoothly from start to finish.
A massive thank you also goes to all of our volunteer marshals. Without your enthusiasm, encouragement, and giving up your time, events like this simply wouldn't happen. Your support around the course kept everyone safe and motivated every step of the way.
And finally... the biggest congratulations go to every single runner who took on the challenge!
Our 5-mile course is one of the toughest trail races around, with muddy trails, challenging climbs, and plenty of obstacles along the way. Every one of you showed determination, grit, and a fantastic spirit from start to finish.
Whether you were racing for a personal best, taking part for fun, or cheering others on, you all helped create an amazing atmosphere that made the day so special.
Congratulations to all of our winners and a special well done to Natalie Braisby, our First Lady, with an excellent time of 47:53.
Thank you all for supporting Run Kibblestone 5. We hope you enjoyed the day as much as we enjoyed organising it.
We can't wait to welcome you back next year for an even bigger and better event!
If you took any photos, we'd love to see them—please share them in the comments below!
See you on the 17th of July 2027
See You Next Year

Hello,

I hope you’re doing well.

I’m reaching out on behalf of our Scout camp charity to ask if you would be willing to help us promote an upcoming running event we’re organising.

Our event aims to raise funds to support local young people through scouting, helping provide outdoor experiences, skills development, and opportunities they might not otherwise have access to. We’d love to connect with your running group and invite your members to take part or help spread the word.

If you’re open to it, we’d really appreciate you sharing our event details with your community—whether through social media, newsletters, or word of mouth. Every bit of support makes a real difference.

I’d be happy to provide more information, posters, or links if needed.

Thank you so much for considering this—we truly appreciate your support.

Kind regards,
stevan fern

Morning.

A little bit of background on courses.

Missing in 2026 is Barlaston Downs, traditionally our final race from Oulton Cricket Club. Alas this venue is not available to us in 2026, we looked at a few alternatives in the area but couldn’t make them work for 2026.

Many will remember Hanchurch, a personal favourite of mine, Forestry England are not accepting events here in 2026. We’ll keep this venue on the radar fo future years but it also comes with some logistical issues.

We’re thrilled to be debuting The Stone Common Plot in 2026. Many people are deceived by this course, thinking it will be tame. It’s certainly in keeping with the series. We have a draft route and will seek approval from the Plot Trustees before we publish it.

After the final race we’ll be doing presentations and drinks at Lymestone Brewery - a great venue. Parking will also be on this Industrial Estate.
