Congratulations to everyone who took part in our first Royal 5k Romp. It was great to see 200 runners kitted out in crowns and gowns in support of Anthony Nolan! Records were broken when Neilson Hall (Bedford AC) finished the course in a swift 14:57. Read the full Royal 5k Romp race report and view the Royal Romp photos here.
Online entry is not yet open for the 2011 event, however if you'd like to register your interest for the fun run or the elite run, please email events@anthonynolan.org or call 0303 303 3000.
Whether you're an experienced runner on a mission for your personal best, or you're a total beginner looking for a bit of a challenge - this is guaranteed to be the event for you!
Fancy dress is entirely optional but encouraged, so dig out those crowns, bring the family along and sign up today! And who knows you could be walking away with a prize for fastest time or best fancy dress costume.
'This was the way these runs should be - very well organised, a good mix of skills from the frighteningly fast elite athletes all the way through to fun runners who walked the course. Great fun, great location, a great charity event. Thanks Anthony Nolan!' Barry, Royal 5k Romp participant 2010
