Good evening, all! I hope you are all drying off now, just remember, you wont need to clean your trainers this week,....
Thank you all for coming along to the first event at Ferry Meadows Country Park for 2024 – Run for Cake!
It was great to meet so many of you for the first time and it was also so nice to see so many familiar faces - we welcome all of you to the Zig Zag Family!
Today's event Route:Â Due to the rain - the plan B out and back route, with a bit of a puddle thrown in for good measure, it was a tough day at the office for you, but you all smashed it out of the park, it s was amazing to see you all achieving such amazing things, Thank you all for your understanding and patience on this change.
Marshals and Support:Â Once again we would like to extend our gratitude to all the brilliant marshals who ensured a smooth and fun experience for everyone. Their commitment to making this event enjoyable for all participants is remarkable, especially due to the last minute changes.
Pictures and Memories:Â Remember to check out the amazing pictures captured during today's run! They will be uploaded to our Zig Zag running group on Facebook. Feel free to tag yourself and your friends to share the moments.

What’s new – We have recently launched our own Zig Zag Running App. This can be found in the app store on your mobile device. It’s a quick way to view these results, access events and see what we have on offer in our shop in terms of merchandise and virtual entries.
All medals are ordered until end of March with some of the next few events either sold out or getting close so don’t leave it too long if you have your eye on a specific piece of bling for your collection.
That said, we attach the race diary for the whole of 2024 and into 2025 so you can start planning your adventures.
We are also hosting the Great Barrow Challenge (10 Events in 10 Days) for the second year. Another great opportunity to push your boundaries and see what you can achieve.
Attached you'll find the results from today, and events diary. Congratulations to those that took a record, got their own PR or PB’s.
Until the next run
Best wishes
Stephen and Zoe
