At the Festival of Running, you will join like-minded runners taking on a range of distances including 5K, 10K, half marathon, full marathon, and ultra marathon. The event offers a six-hour cut-off for a 9 am start, or a four-hour option for an 11 am start.
A standard heavy half marathon is five laps, with the option to increase to six or seven on the day, while a standard ultra marathon is nine laps, extendable up to twelve depending on time. The route takes in the beautiful grounds of Haughley Park, creating a scenic and self-contained setting with plenty of space and an intimate atmosphere.
Suitable for all levels, whether it is your first 5K, 10K, half marathon, full marathon, or ultra marathon, or a milestone event, this race offers a flexible and supportive experience. A water and aid station is located at the lap point, so there is no need to carry large amounts of supplies.
Parking is included and secure on site, with a parking attendant available to guide you on arrival and direct you to registration to collect your race number. All finishers will receive a bespoke medal, with a lucky dip option available where applicable.
The course is mainly on pathways with a small section of trails and woodland. Road trainers are generally suitable, although trail shoes may be useful depending on weather conditions.
For parking, please use postcode IP30 9RS and avoid heading to the Haughley Park wedding venue. Please note that this is a cupless event, so bring your own bottles or cups for refilling, and entries close 48 hours before the event.
