  • Welcome to the FULL EPIC, 65th Worcester Beacon Race 2022, with 1395ft of elevation over approximately 7 miles, this is NOT A FUN RUN!
    Whilst i was still recovering form London Marathon 6 days before this race, i thought i would go along and film the race from a spectators perspective and literally decided this last minute on the Saturday morning after volunteering at parkrun.
    In addition to filming all the runners at the finish line, i tried to capture as many runners as possible on the course around St Anne's Well in Malvern, with some malvern tourism thrown in for good measure!
    I hope you enjoy this in some way and please do share with your fiends and family as it is one of the most iconic races in the UK running calendar and one maybe for your bucket list?
    Thank you for watching!

    This is superb. A really good account of the race that will hopefully help increase numbers next year. I've sent the video over to the organiser (Dave Waldron - the man with the megaphone) and we'll share it across our membership. Glad you enjoyed it and thanks again, you've really done a prestigious race justice. Robbie (Worcester AC)

    Cheers Donato. What a beautiful part of the world. Would love to do this race. It looked a brilliant, fun but challenging event.
    Some fantastic footage from yourself which I'm sure everybody will have appreciated. Fair play for staying to the end to see the final runners finish.
    Love this type of event. I've taken part in West Yorkshire winter league and Yorkshire Vets races which are organised by various running clubs. Relatively short distances of 6 or 7 miles but rough, hilly, muddy terrain mean they're always tough but always a great atmosphere and good social occasion.

    This looks like a kinder version of the Malvern Midsummer Marathon, although is anything kind on the legs when climbing those ‘mountains’ 😀
    Cake at the end is always an incentive. Think you’ll be running the canal ring run in Dec again? Andy and I are 90% sure we’re entering again. A nice way to finish a year of events.

      @PoetWithPace  ปีที่แล้ว

      You should give this one a go next year Rachel as you love the hills! No Worcester ring run for me this year as too close to big race in December. Although i have found a Canal Ring Run here for 2024 you may be interested in?..... canalrace.org.uk/warwickshire-ring-canal-race/
