The date has been confirmed for the 2025 Paisley 10k Road Race and Fun Run.<\/p>\n
The event, which last year set a new record by attracting more than 4,500 entrants, will take place on Sunday, 17th August 2025.<\/p>\n
It is a major date in Paisley\u2019s sporting and events calendar – and in the community\u2019s fundraising one too – with many of the fun runners raising money for charitable causes.<\/p>\n
While entries are not yet open, event organisers OneRen are urging runners to save the date – and begin their preparations.<\/p>\n
Councillor Lisa Marie Hughes, Chair of OneRen, said: \u201cThe Paisley 10k and Fun Run is one of the highlights of our year. We can\u2019t wait for it. Whether you\u2019re an elite runner, a fun runner – whatever your ability – there is something for everyone to enjoy. It\u2019s so inclusive. The sight of all of the runners, cheered on by family and friends, really is something special.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe start of the new year sees many of us set ourselves challenges to improve our health and wellbeing in the months ahead.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhether you\u2019re a regular competitor or someone who\u2019s never tried it before, why not include taking part in the 10k or fun run as one of your goals for 2025? Sometimes setting a target can be a powerful motivator to create – and keep – good health and fitness challenges.\u201d<\/p>\n
The Paisley 10k is Scotland\u2019s third largest road race.<\/p>\n
OneRen \u2013 the local charitable trust providing cultural, leisure and sporting opportunities to help people enjoy active and healthy lives \u2013 is supported by Renfrewshire Council and Kilbarchan Amateur Athletics Club in organising the races.<\/p>\n
The team at OneRen will be supporting people across Renfrewshire in their New Year health and wellbeing challenges, with an array of activities and opportunities at its gyms, leisure centres and swimming pools across the region. Wider wellbeing opportunities are available at community halls, libraries and arts venues .<\/p>\n
Mark Tokeley, OneRen\u2019s Operations and Estates Director, said: \u201cThis is often a really busy time for us, with new people seeking fitness advice as they follow through on resolutions.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe know that, for some, calling into your local gym or leisure centre can feel daunting. But they have no reason to worry.<\/p>\n
“We have a great team who can help advise on the steps that you might consider to improve your health and wellbeing, physically and mentally. Whatever your age or ability, we have a fantastic network to support you.\u201d<\/p>\n
