About this template
Here is a modern way to confirm that someone took part: the Emerald Chart 10K Run Certificate, a template that suits race organisers, running clubs and gyms. The colour scheme you see, Grass Green, is one of three built into the design, with chart lines at the heart of the layout. You will also find it under Achievement on CerShare.
Suggested wording
Copy one of these lines into the certificate, then replace the words in brackets.
Certificate of attendance: [Name] attended 10K Run Certificate ([6] CPD hours), [Date].
Thank you, [Name], for joining [Event] as a [Speaker, panellist or delegate].
In recognition of [Name]’s participation in 10K Run Certificate. We hope to see you next year.
How to customise it
You can rewrite the whole certificate; the distance, finish time and bib number fields are already in place, and you can delete the ones you don’t need. Colours are yours to change: try Signal Red, or match your own brand colours. Change the font or the size of any line if your text is longer than the sample. It works in landscape or portrait, on A4 or US Letter, without you having to move anything. There is an Arabic edition too, laid out right to left with Changa.
Printing tips
Use a smooth white paper rather than parchment, so the clean lines stay sharp. Print one copy on plain paper first to check the spelling and the margins. Sign it in blue or black ink once it is printed for a personal touch.
