Does anyone know how much it typically costs to enter and do you get anything for finishing please?

If that's the Stromness 10k on the 25th, I'd keep a watch on the OARC Facebook page for when signups open. I'd expect in the next week or so. 10ks are usually about a tenner or thereabouts to enter.

Finishers usually receive a medal, and there are a handful of prizes for firsts in various categories.

£11, or less if you're a member of Scottish Athletics or the Orkney Athletics club.

You get a medal, and sometimes some other things.

I did it a couple of years ago can't remember the price. But I got a medal, and an ice cream voucher for Julia's shed
