Read all about the 2010 race, look back on the success of 2009 on the photo pages and start getting in the mood. This website gives you all the information you need for a unique Boxing Day Experience.

The Stoke Stampede is a 10 Kilometer run over quiet, slightly undulating, roads through the village of Stoke St Gregory, near Taunton. A race which has grown considerably over the past few years attracting runners from all over the South West. We've been told people return to this race year after year because it is such a great course with friendly marshalling all along the route and enthousiastic crowds in the village square. Will a record number of 400 runners finish this year ? We will if you register !

The race originally began as a fun run to celebrate the Queen's Silver Jubilee in 1977. Quickly gaining accreditation to a UK Athletics licensed run.

For over 12 years Stuart Wilkinson (see middle photo at bottom of this page) has been a prominent face of the race but now he has decided it is time to retire. During his time as race director the Stoke Stampede has grown in popularity.More importantly it has always been a very successful event.
We are sure you will all join us in thanking Stuart for his outstanding contribution to the race.

Sue Hembrow steps up to the role of Race Director, having been race secretary for a considerable number of years.

So be assured the race is still in safe hands.
