Sunday 20 May
Alzheimer Scotland invite you to take part in this year's City of Aberdeen Baker Hughes 10K which is the largest 10K road race in the North East of Scotland.The course for this Scottish Athletics permit event is based around Aberdeen's Beach and Harbour area and has some spectacular views of the North Sea and the iconic Beach Ballroom on the route of the course.
The City of Aberdeen Baker Hughes 10K attracts all types of entries, from the serious runners who are in it to win it, to the corporate group who enter to raise money for charity or simply the person who wants to use the event as a motivation to get fit.
If you are planning to take part or are thinking about entering, why not persuade family, friends or work colleagues to take part with you. Start training for the City of Aberdeen Baker Hughes 10K and raise funds for Alzheimer Scotland.
The race was officially launched by Great Britain athlete and 2012 Olympic hopeful Lee McConnell on Monday 16 January and entries are now being accepted.
We ask for a registration fee of £10 and a pledge from you to raise a minimum of £120 for Alzheimer Scotland. This will guarantee you a place at the race and we will provide you with sponsor forms, Just Giving information, fundraising tips and a stylish, breathable t-shirt or running vest to wear on the day, along with a temporary tattoo for added awareness!
Use your own place!.
If you have your own place you still can be part of the Alzheimer Scotland team by using that place to run for Alzheimer Scotland. You will receive a full fundraising running pack from us and gain access to all of the same benefits as a charity place runner. Important: By signing up as an own place runner we will not provide a place in the event. You must have already received your place and paid for your registration directly to the event organisers. We’ll support you the whole way and we’ll be there on the day to cheer you over the finish line!
In order to fundraise for Alzheimer Scotland please let us know by emailing the Events Team at events@alzscot.org or calling the events line on 0845 260 0789. Even if you've already registered and haven't chosen a charity to support - it's not too late! We will then send you out a sponsorship pack as a thank you for running for our cause.
