‍♀️ Steve Morris 5 ‍♂️great run @desfordstriders 🏼Another @lrrl1984 race done! 🤍A huge well done to everyone who took on the Steve Morris 5 today. A firm favourite on the league calendar, and after the recent heatwave, the temperatures were definitely a little kinder… although the sun seemed to make an appearance at exactly the wrong moment – usually when you were climbing another hill! ️⛰️It’s a course that never gets any easier, but it still delivered plenty of smiles, some fantastic performances, and the kind of encouragement that makes league races so special.One of the best things about these races isn’t just the running. It’s seeing teammates waiting at the finish, cheering every runner home, celebrating PBs, digging deep together, and supporting those who found it tough. That’s what makes Hinckley Running Club such a special club to be part of. Well done to everyone who raced, volunteered and supported today. We hope those legs recover quickly… until the next one! 📸 Don’t forget to share your photos in the comments and let us know how you got on!🤍

🤍 Parkrun Takeover Complete! 🤍What a morning at Market Bosworth Country Park parkrun! A huge thank you to every single Hinckley Running Club member who gave up their Saturday morning to make today’s takeover happen. Whether you marshalled, timekept, scanned barcodes, set up, packed away, cheered everyone on, or laced up your trainers and ran, you all played a part in making today such a success.A parkrun can’t happen without volunteers. We needed 18 people to safely deliver today’s event… and we had 17 marshals alone! 🤩 That says everything about the incredible spirit of our club.It was also fantastic to see so many members supporting fellow runners, including those from the Easier Said Than Run group. That’s what running communities are all about—encouraging others, celebrating every achievement and making everyone feel welcome.Big shout out to our chairwomen @charlottemaysinclair for organising, coordinating and making things happen Days like today remind us that Hinckley Running Club is about so much more than running. It’s about people, friendship, giving back to the community and creating something special together.To everyone who volunteered, supported and took part… thank you. You should all be incredibly proud. 🤍#HinckleyRunningClub #parkrun #LoveParkrun #MarketBosworthparkrun #RunningCommunity

This included organising the event as well as members volunteering in roles on the day of the event such as marshals, timekeepers and run director.A total of 138 people took part in the Parkrun with around 30 people volunteering.Club chairwoman Charlotte Sinclair said: “It has been very exciting for the club to have a new home at Hastings High School. A Parkrun takeover was the perfect way to celebrate this by doing something we all love and giving something back to our community.“As well as a new home, we have also recently launched a new club kit so the event was the perfect excuse to also put this to the test!“It was great to see so many people take part in the event and volunteer. Thank you to everyone who made this happen.“Thank you also to Hastings High School. We look forward, as a club, to continuing working together with the school in our local community.”
