MLS Contracts Ltd delivered the inaugural Redbrik Foundation Chesterfield 10k on the 17 th October 2021. MLS worked with its partners and sponsors during the Covid-19 pandemic and changed the Chesterfield Half Marathon race to create a more accessible 10K distance with the main title partnership with the Redbrik Foundation.

Event day also saw the City Taxis Fun Run with 100’s of people young people taking part while they waited for friends and family to return after the start of the 10K.

With all the teachers and additional schools expressing interest in joining in the event next year. The newly developed 10k saw the 2021 Race safety maximum reached of 1,300 runners sign up with 940 taking their place on the starting line. Many runners hit PB’s and the event received huge positive feedback. Runners had pledged to raise over £59K for charities in the region and the Events charity partner Ashgate Hospice coordinated the recruitment of the amazing volunteers who helped not only get the runners around the course safely but also cheered them on with the route packed with the residents of Chesterfield.
