The Thompson Millennium Green 10K & 5K is an annual village run held in Thompson, Norfolk. It begins at 11:00 am from the Green, postcode IP24 1PU. The event features a 10K run and a 5K fun run. Both races utilize mixed surfaces, including paths, lanes, bridleways, farm tracks, and byroads surrounding the village, rather than closed city streets. The courses are relatively flat, offering opportunities for personal bests, and the 5K provides a shorter option for families and newer participants within the same rural setting. The 10K route commences on Thompson Millennium Green, proceeds through farmland tracks and byroads, connects with Griston Road, passes the Chequers pub, and concludes back on the Green. The 5K follows a comparable out-and-back village course. Volunteers organize the event to generate funds for Thompson Millennium Green, which is the Green’s primary annual fundraiser. Proceeds support its maintenance and development. The event relies significantly on local assistance, including marshals, timekeepers, car park attendants, finish-line photographers, kitchen volunteers, BBQ staff, and bakers contributing cakes. All finishers are awarded custom medals, leading runners receive trophies, and the post-race arrangements typically include hot dogs, refreshments, and homemade baked goods.
