West Ham Park Run Series
This series have been endorsed by the Owners City of London and the West Ham Park Managers who takes an active role every Sunday morning that the run takes place.
The run was started due to the heavy request TSFA was receiving following on from our Newham Classic 10K Run which was held in April 2009. Local residents and others from the surrounding Boroughs wanted to further continue to improve their fitness during the summer and winter months having enjoyed taking part in the Newham Classic 10K.
The Sunday morning runs is conducted in West Ham Park, it covers a route of 5K and open to all ages with a shorter distance of 2K for under 10 year olds who wish to accompany their parents for a fun morning. The runners go through a series of stretching and warm up exercises to avoid injuries and times run finishing with fun time talking about health and nutrition.
The run started in January 2010 with 20 runners, over a short period with breaks at the end of the series our West Ham Park series is attracting over 100 runners each Sunday. At the end of all the block weeks the run culminated in a fun finale which 80 runners took part. As an incentive medals was rewarded for improved fitness, most individual attendance and best timed run.
The series has been so successful that it has now become annual event and attention is now been encouraged to become the TSFA West Ham Park Running Club.
