Races in the UK?

Can I ask what websites do people use to look for races. I use a great one in Chile which features all chile races and second which shows the big international marathons as well as domestic. Any recommendations would be great looking to do a 10km near me (cheshire) when I am home.

I often use nice-work.org.uk/ to find runs.

there's normally a whole host of them on runnersworld too! Have a look at the search function.

Thank you ! I had a look and found a run or dye but but the race was £25. Races in the UK are expensive

try entrycentral.com - this is a website where you can book your place for a run, but you can use their search engine to specify a distance and location. I think there is another one called sportssytem,co.uk or .com

YEah everything is ok with us, it's far from santiago. Lots of volcanoes in Chile. I just hope that the people in pucon and the surrounding area don't have any looting but the government seems on top of it after 2010. Thank you for thinking about me though. I saw some of interviews and as always people are cool as cucumbers

lol - maybe it will make me run faster - the pictures were amazing. I didn't know much about chile before i moved here but it is well worth the very long journey. Chile is a really amazing country and well worth a visit - You have the driest desert in the north, vineyards in the middle (Mendoza is nicer though) and lakes in the south. Then the tip is as close as you can get to Antarctica. I didn't know much about chile but it is well worth the very long journey. Besides where else can you get a extra large glass of wine which is good for £3 or a bottle of sparkling wine from the supermarket for £4.70 (on a high priced day)?
