About the Event

The Flapjack 5k at Torbay Velopark invites runners seeking personal bests with its meticulously designed course. Nestled within the modern facilities of the Velopark, this race begins and ends on fast, flat tarmac that promises smooth running from start to finish. Competitors will enjoy two initial laps around the park's perimeter before transitioning onto a newly laid out-and-back section specifically optimized for speed.
Professional RFID chip timing ensures accurate results, while well-marked routes and attentive marshals guide runners throughout their journey. A medal is awarded to every participant who crosses the line, with podium spots reserved for top finishers in each category.
Supportive amenities include hydration stations offering water along the route, on-site medical assistance, catering services providing sustenance, clean facilities, and public liability insurance coverage. All participants can look forward to a flapjack treat upon completion of their race.
This event combines competitive spirit with thoughtful support systems, making it an ideal choice for both seasoned runners aiming for new PBs and those looking for a reliable performance venue.
