Double or Quit Race

27th August 2011 (provisional) 5pm start


There are places available for entry on the day - just turn up at the registration tent from 3pm.

Welcome to the website for the Double or Quit race.  This is an event hosted by Ilkeston Running Club (see www.ilkestonrunningclub.co.uk ).  2010 was the 6th time the event has been held.

We like to think that the race appeals to the majority of runners as it has the following attributes:

  • held on a summers evening
  • a scenic country park
  • traffic free (just about)
  • multi terrain
  • the choice of one 5 mile lap or two - hence the name of the event
  • lots of enthusiastic marshals
  • perpetual trophies, race memento and a goody bag
  • open to all abilities
If you enjoy a challenge and prefer to run on trails then this is the race for you.  The 10 mile option is a hard challenge and would suit anyone looking for a preparation race for an autumn half marathon.
