Our Races
Additional Information
We have two public running events each year, the Fell ‘Em Doon Woodland 10K in the summer, and our Festive 5K near Christmas. Places sell out very quickly due to the fantastic route through the Ashington Community Woods, the support you will get along the way and of course the goody bag and medal at the end.
Full details of how to sign up will be below when available.

Fell 'Em Doon
We have two public running events each year, the Fell ‘Em Doon Woodland 10K or 5 Miler in the summer, and our Festive 5K near Christmas. Places sell out very quickly due to the fantastic route through the Ashington Community Woods, the support you will get along the way and of course the goody bag and medal at the end.
As has been customary for the Woodland 10k or 5 Miler, the volunteers and competitors are asked to bring donations for the local foodbanks and to make/buy cakes to raise money for charity. The money raised will be donated to charity later in the year and the food donations delivered to Ashington Life Centre.
