Whilst my journey with running has been relatively short I am absolutely delighted and proud to be part of the Committee for this long established event, it is such an inclusive event for each and every runner as well as providing financial support to local charities and organisations.  I personally thrive on all the pre-race activities and this year will be working with our army of volunteers whose valuable contribution plays a big part in making this event the success it is.

Gill Fox – 2k race director

With a background which includes supporting runners; event management; risk assessment and working with children and young people, I am more than delighted to be using these skills (combined with enthusiasm and a sense of humour) as 2K race director and 10K committee member. Thank you for the opportunity!

Alex fogwill – race village

My involvement with the Corsham 10K goes back to 2006 and I’ve loved watching it get better and better with every passing year. We are all desperately keen for it to be a good value and good quality event which will encourage people to get fit and keep fit. My particular role on the committee is to look after the Event Village and to make it a smooth process both at the start and at the finish.

PAUL SCOTFORD – Parking and signage

The Corsham 10K was the first race I ever entered and double the distance I had previously run before. It was such a great experience that I was back on the start line the next year desperate to beat my time. I’m now proud to be involved in the organisation of the event helping with car parking and the signage around the course. The great thing about the Corsham 10K is its inclusivity. It does not matter if you are an elite athlete or a complete novice, the cheers of encouragement from the crowd ensure you will have a great time.

CARL ZALEK – treasurer

I first ran the Corsham 10K in 2005 having been handed a flyer at the Bath half. After moving and joining Corsham Running Club, I’ve been involved with every Corsham 10K since 2007, mostly with the 2K course and many years as the 50 minute pacer for the 10K. I’m proud to be working on the committee as Treasurer and Website manager

CHARLIE BERRY – Volunteer Co-Ordinator

Being relatively new to running, I found Corsham Running Club to be very inspiring and I enjoyed making lots of new friends in running. I wanted to help the 10K continue from strength to strength and I really admire how supportive of all levels of runners the 10K is.

Richard moore – Race Village

I first ran the Corsham 10K in 2011 for a New Year’s Resolution to get running. Quickly hooked, I ran again in 2012 and then have not looked back. The 10K is very inclusive and pulls together the whole town of Corsham with stalls, bands, and supporters all the way round. So when I was asked to help out I did not hesitate and feel privileged to be part of this great event.

eMMA CORRICK – social media manager

I first ran the Corsham 10K in 2021, after a return to running in the autumn with the Corsham Running Club’s beginner course. I was blown away by the amount of local support around the whole course. It’s an event that has something for every runner and is an incredibly inclusive running race. I have since been a member of the committee by promoting the event on social media.

MAX LUFF – Course director

I’m super excited to be part of the Corsham 10k race committee! Being a runner myself, it’s a fantastic opportunity to help organise an event that celebrates health, community spirit, and personal goals. Working with other committee members, we’ll make sure the race is not just a success but also a fun and memorable experience for everyone involved. From sorting out logistics to creating a great vibe among runners, I truly relish the opportunity to make the Corsham 10k something special.
