The Chew Valley 10k is back on the 9th June, and guess what? The Ring O’ Bells in Hinton Blewett is the place to be! We’re proud to be the only major gathering spot on the entire race route, and we’re turning up the energy to help runners smash through that tricky mid-race wall. Whether you’re pounding the pavement or just soaking up the atmosphere, we’ve got your morning sorted from 08:00.
Let me take you through why the Ring O’ Bells is the ultimate cheer zone and what you can expect on race day.
What Makes the Ring O’ Bells the Ultimate Cheer Zone?
The Chew Valley 10k is a big deal around here. It draws runners and supporters from all over, and the Ring O’ Bells has become the heart of the action after the start & finish zones. Here’s why:
Only major gathering spot on the route: While the race winds through beautiful countryside, the Ring O’ Bells is the one place where fans, runners, and locals come together in full force.
A buzzing atmosphere: From the moment the sun rises, the village green fills with cheers, laughter, and the smell of sizzling food & fresh coffee!
Support that counts: We’re not just shouting from the side lines. We’re here to fuel runners and fans alike with great food, drinks, and plenty of encouragement.
If you’ve never been to a race day here, you’re in for a treat. The energy is infectious, and the community spirit is strong.
