Stroud Beer Race
This tough race is one to test the hill endurance on – based at the Old Lodge, Minchinhampton, the 3-lap course takes runners down to Amberley Inn before the course starts climbing, up to Beaudesert School and across the common. Included in both the RSE club championship and the Glos. AAA road series, the race is all worth it for a free half-pint of beer at the end!
It was great to see so many club members running the course, as well as those out cheerleading!

Definitely one of the hardest races I’ve done. Hills, hills and more hills! So chuffed to achieve a sub 1 hour time. Brilliant support from RSE as always and great club experience again.
Alan Powderhill
Undulating with a capital "U"! I last ran this race in 2021 and this year the conditions were a lot cooler thankfully, but a nasty headwind coming up the long incline at the end of each lap made it particularly challenging. The support of the RSE crowd cheering us on as we finished each lap was really appreciated and spurred me on.
Nia Glover
This a 'Why did I enter?' kinda race but this time I enjoyed it.
I managed a 9 min course PB which I'm super happy with.
Lovely to see so many of club out.
