Note: The 10k run starts opposite Parsons Field, not on the playing field. This avoids congestion with the Fun Run. At 10.55am the race organisers will lead the 10k runners to the start.

"Dedham is situated in the heart of Constable Country. ‘The Haywain’, one of John Constables’ most famous paintings, was painted at Flatford Mill which is a 20min walk along the picturesque river Stour from Dedham. There are rowing boats available for hire and several cafes and pubs serving refreshments.
Also, BBQ, refreshments and entertainments on the playing field.
