9 Locks 10k Winter Challenge
The 9 Locks 10k Winter Challenge takes place on Sunday 28 November 2027 and is organised by OP Events. The event is a point to point 10 km run from Stourbridge to Brierley Hill. The course is described as a continual incline and follows canal-side paths with a hint of trail underfoot.
The route includes the 9 Delph Locks near the end and features a King of the Hill segment within the chip timing. Start positions are seeded. Support facilities listed for the event include free parking, a coach transfer, goody bags, a medal and prizes. The organiser describes a supportive, festival atmosphere.
There are two listed entry options: a social Marshall place and a 10 km running entry priced at £24.99 plus a £1.50 fee. Entry deadlines are in late November 2027, with the 10 km entry closing on 25 November 2027 and the social option closing on 28 November 2027. The event is chip timed and includes prize categories associated with the timed results. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
