Introduction
Wokingham Half Marathon has been running since 1984, much of it’s success is down to
Peter and Barbara Evans who with their team of dedicated volunteers developed an
outstanding race that served the running community, benefited the local community
and gave Wokingham an event to be proud of.
Peter decided to retire as race director following the 2018 race and asked Racesolutions
if they would like to take on the event. From 2019 the race will operate as the Wokingham
Half Marathon company with the support of Racesolutions Limited. Racesolutions have
a track record of building great events and are equipped to help the event face the challenges
of Wokingham’s expansion and an increasingly commercial and aggressive mass participation
event market.
Peter Evans, organiser of the Wokingham Half-Marathon until
2018, has been recognised by Wokingham Borough Mayor,
Cllr Rob Stanton, with a Mayor’s Award for his services to the
voluntary sector and sport in the Wokingham Borough. Peter,
who resides in Wokingham, is also Chairman of the Wokingham
Borough Sports Sponsorship Fund, which grants sports to
young people who have excelled at sport, but not to the level
where they are able to receive funding from national bodies.
Wokingham Half Marathon supports local charities, community groups and good causes.
