The Capel 5 is an established 5 mile road race through the village of Capel St Mary and the surrounding Suffolk countryside. The main race follows an out and back route from the village, with a children's 1 mile fun run providing a shorter event within the playing fields.
Runners tackle an undulating course primarily on open roads, with a short section of approximately 400 metres following a footpath through fields before the route heads back into Capel St Mary. The varied profile and village setting create an engaging 5 mile course for club runners and recreational entrants alike.
The event is organised by Capel Cheetahs Running Club and held under UK Athletics rules. The accompanying 1 mile fun run is open to children under 15 and takes place entirely within the playing fields, with both events chip timed and finishers in the children's race receiving a medal.
