A POPULAR race that helps blow away the cobwebs after the festive break is to mark its 40th anniversary next year.
The Woodcote 10k has a route that goes through South Chilterns and attracts both club and amateur runner alike.
It will be held on Sunday, January 8, and is organised by the Rotary Club of Pangbourne, raising funds for good courses in the process.
Known as the Tough One, the course goes along back roads, woods and farmland, giving participants a real runabout at the start of the year.
Entry is limited to 600 runners and costs £20 per person, with a £2 discount for affiliated club runners. Participants must be 15 or over.
The proceeds from the 2023 race will be shared with Blood Bikes, Purley Park Trust and other charities and good causes supported by the Rotary Club of Pangbourne
