Wheathampstead 10K

St Albans Car and Van Hire were delighted to provide a van to assist with this years Wheathampstead 10K run which took place on Sunday 18 May 2014.

The annual Wheathampstead 10k run is renowned for passing through beautiful countryside, and that's one of the reasons that it draws in such a large crowd each year. They allow for a total of 800 runners and they tell us the course is always oversubscribed! The Wheaty10K is a challenging off-road course that runs from Sheepcote Lane to Marford Playing Fields.

If you ran the Wheathampstead 10k this year and are thinking about doing some other runs next year why not get a whole group together, hire a minibus, and make a real weekend of it?

There's also a 2k Family Fun Run which started at 10am this year from the Marford Playing Fields. It's an off road, circular run on good footpaths which is ideal for families and for a pre-10K warm up. The 2000m fun run is suitable for runners and walkers of all ages. To further add to the fun this year there was a BBQ, café, bouncy castles and lots of other activities for children.

If you want to suggest anyone on the staff at St Albans Car and Van Hire take part next year, please do let us know, and we'll do our best to talk them into it! After our recent ALS Ice Bucket Challenge we're still looking for a way of warming up!
