On Sunday 5th August, ‘Run Norwich’ returns to the fine city, an event we couldn’t be prouder to sponsor. Half-way along the route, runners will encounter a formidable obstacle, the Aston Shaw Mountain.
The Aston Shaw Mountain can be found on Rose Lane, right near our Head Office in fact, hence the name Aston Shaw Mountain. This stretch of the route is particularly challenging because the #ASMountain is long, and it is steep.
If you’re running the 10k, the question shouldn’t just be will you complete the race, but will you conquer the Aston Shaw Mountain? You’ll know when you’re approaching the mountain because we’ll tell you. We’ll be there cheering you on, spurring you on from the base of the mountain to reach the summit. Keep your eyes peeled for the spectacle that is our cheer station, there will be signs warning you of the approach, there’ll be a balloon arch, there’ll be music and there’ll be us, members of staff cheering you on and encouraging you to conquer the Aston Shaw Mountain. We hope that our encouragement will not only get you to the top of the Aston Shaw Mountain, but over the finish line too.
Oh, and you’ll be live on our Facebook page as we capture the moment you muster the energy to begin the ascent. So, make sure you smile! Full footage will later be available on our YouTube channel, so be sure to check back on our website after the race.
We look forward to seeing you there, we wish you good luck, and most importantly, that you have a good time.
