A look at this year's key stats, facts and figures...

Newcomers and race veterans:

An incredible 61% of you are returning runners from previous races (an increase of 1% from last year!) whilst 19% are taking on your first ever 10k (an increase of 3%). Great to see so many new faces, and old, at this year’s race!

Hola, Nǐ hǎo, Boujour and Ciao!

From Albania to Zimbabwe and everything in-between, these are the 57 nations our runners call home.

Age is just a number…

With the inclusion of Run Norwich Junior (not listed below) RN24 will have our widest age spectrum yet! This year has also seen an increase of 2% in female representation – you go, girls!

Home is where the heart is

Planes, trains and automobiles – that’s what it’ll take some of our runners just to get to the start line – we see you, New Zealand!

Mr. and Mrs. Smith

It’ll be a surprise to absolutely nobody to know that Smith remains the most common name at this year’s race. And of course we couldn’t miss our 327 ever-presents – you all get a gold star! Well, not a gold one, but really, check your bib!

Happy birthday to… you, and you, and you…

24 runners celebrate their birthday in style this year, and our oldest runner will be 85 years-old on race day. If that’s not incredible, we don’t know what is!
