Sign up for Starfish Breakfast Run & Picnic

Are you looking for a fitness goal for the New Year? Take advantage of our professionally organised 15km, 10km and 5km events on Clapham Common at 10am on Sunday 6th March 2016.

The course is flat and fast, suitable for a PB attempt, some pre-marathon speed work or just as a good race in itself. There’s official chip timing and sports massages available afterwards. The winners take home a trophy and all participants will receive a medal, t-shirt and a healthy picnic basket to replenish a few calories after crossing the finish line. Prices for entry are 5k = £17, 10k = £20, 15k = £23

Those runners who haven’t taken part in organised events before but are looking for a spring goal are also welcome. The flat course will be perfect for the less competitive and support along the route should be good as the organisers are putting on a bouncy castle, face painting, tombola and other games for all members of the family to enjoy. There is also a free 100m dash for kids.

The Starfish Breakfast Run is organised by the Starfish Greathearts Foundation, a UK-based charity that supports children with HIV and AIDS in South Africa. This year Starfish has once again teamed up Wasserman Media Group, sports and entertainment specialists, who have donated their time and expertise to make the 2016 event even better than last year.

Feedback from a 2015 participant:
“Thanks to Starfish for putting on their Breakfast Run again. This is a really well run event. I used it as a tune-up for a half marathon I had lined up in the spring and had a good run in amongst a competitive field. There was a good atmosphere and the family came along to support me too – I think they had a better time than I did with all the stuff to do! Thanks for a great event.”
