The Inflatable 5K Cheltenham transforms Cheltenham Racecourse into a giant inflatable obstacle course, creating an energetic running challenge for families, groups of friends and participants of all abilities. Entrants can run, jog or walk their chosen distance while taking on a succession of oversized inflatable obstacles around the racecourse.
The event uses a 2.5K lap packed with 15 inflatable obstacles, including giant slides, tunnels, climbing challenges and other inflatable features. Participants can complete one, two, four or six laps to tackle 2.5K, 5K, 10K or 15K, allowing runners to choose the level of challenge that suits them. Music zones around the course add to the lively atmosphere as participants make their way between obstacles.
With the emphasis firmly on fun rather than finishing times, the Inflatable 5K Cheltenham provides a different experience from a traditional running event. The combination of multiple distances, huge obstacles and the setting of Cheltenham Racecourse makes it particularly suited to families, friends and groups looking to take on the challenge together, with a finisher's medal waiting at the end.
