Follow on Google News | Spectators urged to show support for Admiral Swansea Bay 10k entrantsThis weekend sees the return of Swansea’s ever popular Admiral Swansea Bay 10km road race and with nearly 4000 competitors organisers are hoping for a large turn out of spectators to encourage the runners as they make their way along the course.
By: City and County of Swansea Spectators are encouraged to support the runners and will be able to enjoy a comprehensive pre-event warm-up and plenty of entertainment, stalls and a mascot race. The race follows a flat, fast scenic course along the picturesque sweep of Swansea Bay and includes those running for charity along with more experienced athletes, some celebrities and those simply taking part for fun. In addition to the main 10k race there will also be a 10k wheelchair race along with four junior age group races covering 5k, 3k and 1k. There's still time for children to enter one of the junior races with entries open on the day but hurry this is only if spaces are still available. Nigel Jones, Special Events Manager, said: "The race is now widely recognised as one of the best of its kind in the UK and it is fantastic that the 2011 Admiral Swansea Bay 10K is featuring in the inaugural Run Britain Grand Prix running series.” "The Admiral Swansea Bay 10K attracts a wonderful mix of seasoned athletes, fun runners and people raising money for so many worthy causes. “Furthermore, it is a family-friendly occasion which generates a terrific atmosphere for people of all ages and it has become an important fixture on Swansea's annual events calendar. I'd urge people to come along, watch the races , support all the runners and enjoy the occasion.” For more information visit http://www.swanseabay10k.com or contact Swansea Council's Special Events Team on 01792 635428 during normal office hours.
