Official running club partner confirmed for Redbrik Foundation Chesterfield 10k

The Redbrik Foundation Chesterfield 10k has confirmed North Derbyshire Running Club once again as its official running club partner for its 2022 event in Queen’s Park.

North Derbyshire Running Club will once again provide pace runners and support runners for the event, which is taking place on Sunday 16 October 2022, starting at 10:00am.

Those aiming for a particular time can join a pacer’s group at the start and follow them throughout the race. The pacer tries to run even splits, moving at the same speed from start to finish, checking their time regularly and making any necessary adjustments.

The role of the 10K support runners is to help anyone throughout the race who may need extra support or motivation but importantly have a great time.

Andrew Hall, Club Chairman at North Derbyshire Running Club, said: “We’re so glad to be the official running club partner of Chesterfield 10k this year. We’re looking forward to helping experienced runners smash their PBs, as well as supporting those completing what might be their first 10k.”

The Chesterfield 10k is a local event that’s really important to us, as support and pace runners but also as a club. We hope to support the runners and charity partners, while showing people what a great club North Derbyshire is to be part of.”

John Timms, Event Director, said: “Pacers and support runners are a vital part of the Chesterfield 10k, helping people stay motivated, no matter their ability. The feedback we had last year, particularly regarding the support runners was overwhelmingly positive, so it’s really important that we’re able to offer that experience to entrants once again.”
