A total of 154 runners completed the first race in 1986, and the event has grown steadily since, attracting large numbers of runners. It has been sold out every year before race day since 2016 and is fast becoming one of the most popular races in the Northwest.

The race has proven to be so popular that the organizers are now holding a second event in the summer, the Wesham Summer 10K.

The first three men and women will receive prizes. The organizers award prizes to the first male and female juniors. They will also award prizes in the masters categories, from M40 to M80 + for men and from W35 to W70 + for women.
