Fakenham's Easter Funday and races are set to return for the festivities in 2024.

The annual event welcomes participation from individuals of all ages and skill levels, or for those who would rather relax, there are a number of cafes and pubs adjoining the circuit.

The event begins with a morning dedicated to runners, with a 5k run that is followed by a Fun Run, for both children and adults.

A special feature for children is the Toddle'n'Trike, and all young participants receive a goody bag consisting of chocolate, fruit and a medal upon course completion.

Prizes and trophies are designated for winners of the day's races.

Richard Crook, from Active Fakenham said: "We are thrilled to bring this popular event back to the town.

"We try to make it exciting for everyone whether they are joining in or just watching and cheering."

Cycling takes centre stage in the afternoon, with a fast-paced road race taking place on a kilometre-long circuit.

These races typically last approximately 40 to 50 minutes, with riders reaching near speeds of 40mph.

Mr Crook said: "This annual event has been going since 2016 and we have had runners in their 80s and cyclists as young as two.

"Criterium cycle racing is an exciting spectacle as the riders pass close to spectators and because it’s a small circuit can be seen many times during the race.

"Like all Active Fakenham events we keep prices low and its free to watch.

"We are particularly proud of our women’s criterium race which has attracted top riders from across the country and beyond but also gives the opportunity for all levels of women riders to take part.”

The organisers extend their appreciation to the local community for their support and cooperation, particularly in relation to road closures for the day.

Places are limited but some may be available on the day.
