The Bradley Stoke 10k Run is held annually in June as part of the Bradley Stoke Community Festival. The race is organised by Sole Sisters, the only all women UK Athletics affiliated running group based in North Bristol.
The race is described as “multi-terrain”, being partly on tracks through the Three Brooks Local Nature Reserve but also on tarmac footpaths (e.g. behind Juniper Way and along Bradley Stoke Way). The course has a slight amount of climb as it crosses or follows the Three Brooks stream network. Winning times were 33:36 (men) and 41:17 (women) in 2009.
The 2024 race takes place on Sunday 9th June.
NEW: Entries are now open – via RaceNation
