  • Run for charity

    Published 10/09/21

    The Twyford Together Charity 5k and Fun Run is one of the village’s best-loved, annual events. It’s a chance to get active for a good cause, run with family and neighbours and perhaps be crowned ‘Fastest Street in Twyford’… the ultimate accolade! 

    This year’s event is taking place here at The Piggott School on Sunday 10 October.

    There are four races, split according to school year groups (pre-school toddle (100m), reception and years 1 & 2 (1km), years 3 & 4 (1km), years 5 & 6 (2km) as well as a chip-timed, multi-terrain, 5K for those aged 11+ (see course map).

    In 2019, we introduced a brand new, fastest street competition to the Twyford Together Charity 5K and Fun Run. Chip timing allows us to collect race times for individual streets in our 5K race. The street with the fastest cumulative time for three runners wins! So, get training with your neighbours if you want to beat our 2019 winners, Springfield Park!

    RECEIVE A MEDAL OR DONATE A TREE!

    New for 2021 is the option of receiving a medal or ‘dedicating a tree’.
