Pattingham Bells Run is an annual event which takes place each October.
The next run takes place on Sunday 17th October 2010.
The run starts and finishes in Pattingham in South Staffordshire over a 7 mile off-road, multi-terrain course, under UKA rules.
The first run, back in 1990, was organised to raise money to replace the old wooden bell frame in the belfry of St. Chad's church in Pattingham. Because of its popularity, the run has continued over the years and is now a respected event in the running world.
All proceeds from the race are now used for local charities, such as the West Midlands Air Ambulance, and also to help St. Chad's church funds. All runners finishing receive a 'Bells Run' brass.
Entry forms for this year's Main Race and for the Junior Race (for those aged 11
to 16) are now available.
Entries for the main Race are limited to the first 1000 runners.
