Over Running Festival

WOW, what a weekend.

Now that the dust has settled and I have been able to take a little bit of time to evaluate, I think it is fair to say that the inaugural Over Running Festival was a success. Of course there are things that did not go as smoothly as we would have hoped, but we will take it all away and work on ahead of next years event.

Big thanks to Tracy and her team at Over Community Centre, they were absolutely fantastic with us all weekend, without them the event would not have been able to take place. Also, massive well done on the Fun Day, it was brilliant.

Another huge thanks goes to all friends, family & strangers that offered their support throughout the event, the encouragement (and sweets) really do make a massive difference.

Finally, and most importantly, a MASSIVE thank you to all the runners. Whether you completed the 5k, the 10k or the 24 hour event, you made this weekend a success! The weather, whilst lovely, added an extra complication when it came to running, but everyone got on with it.

Planning is already well underway for Over Running Festival 2026, watch this space and GET INVOLVED.
