The Letchworth 5K is a closed road race through the centre of Letchworth Garden City, the world's first garden city. The event brings runners into the heart of the town for a community focused morning of racing, with road closures in place across the courses.
Runners can take on the 5K as the main event, with a separate 1 mile race and fun run also forming part of the programme. The closed road setting provides an accessible course through Letchworth, and the routes are suitable for wheelchair users and running buggies. Participants can enter individual distances or take on all three events.
The event welcomes runners across a range of abilities and includes prizes for leading male and female finishers as well as age category awards. Its combination of town centre racing, shorter distance options and traffic free routes makes it an accessible running event for both competitive participants and the wider community.
