PLS 10K Race

Penny Lane Race History

The Penny Lane Striders Road Race began as a 10 mile event originally staged and run from the Greenbank Project in 1987. The Race was revived in 1996 and remained a 10 miler until 1999 when, because of restrictions affecting the 10 mile course, was converted to a 10k distance, the distance that is run today. In 2008 the Penny Lane Striders celebrated the 10th anniversary of the Race which has become a popular and well supported annual event.

From 2010 The Annual 10k race starts on Otterspool Promenade at the bottom of the Police Club and finishes with a grandstand finish inside the grounds of the Police Club.

The best Liverpool race. Great organisation and atmosphere

One to look forward to, great setting, nice and friendly, will be back next year

Excellent organisation, excellent course, and I got an excellent PB!

First time I have run the PLS 10K, expect to become a regular.
Thanks to all the marshalls for their encouragement and to the
Striders for organising an excellent event
