Rotary Club of Felixstowe Fun Run

All the details:

This year's Fun Run, which is sponsored by MCP plc, is being held at 11:00 am on Bank Holiday Monday 4th May 2026. The event is open to everyone and involves running (or walking) as many laps as possible in an hour starting at 11:00 am around a measured 1-mile circuit centred on the Felixstowe Spa Pavilion. All runners will receive an attractive colour commemorative certificate at the end of their run. It is an opportunity for runners to seek sponsorships to raise money for their club, society or deserving cause of their choice. Entry fees are £7 for adults (17s and over) and £5 for 16s and under. These fees go towards supporting local deserving causes as determined by the Rotary Club of Felixstowe.

We encourage running groups, clubs and individuals to sign up early for what promises to be an enjoyable and exciting morning. Those who are willing to run in Fancy Dress have a chance to win cash prizes of £60, £45, £30 and £15 for the four most eye-catching entrants (teams or individual). The prizes are sponsored by Ruby's and the Mayor will be judging and awarding the prizes.

On Fun Run day, all registered entrants need to collect their vest running numbers (between 9.30 and 11.00 am) from the registration desks on the stage of the Spa Theatre, accessed through the stage doors at the rear of the theatre. Team leaders should collect their whole teams' vest running numbers, safety pins and memento certificates from the Spa Theatre stage. It will be the responsibility of the team leaders to pass these on to all entrants in their team.

There are three ways to register:

1.Individuals can pop in and collect a Fun Run registration and sponsorship card from either Diamond Mills or Nick Barber Auctions, both in Hamilton Road. You will find all the details you need for registration printed on the card.

2. To enter a team, please email funrun@felixstowerotaryclub.org to request a team entry sheet stating how many cards you would like. The Rotary Club responder will send you the entry sheet by email, which has on it all you need to know to complete the registration, as well as making arrangements with you to get the cards into your hands.
