The Ware Festival of Running takes place in Hertfordshire and features 10K and 10 Mile road races alongside children's events. Combining competitive racing with a welcoming community atmosphere, the festival attracts runners of all abilities while supporting the Essex & Herts Air Ambulance.

The courses follow scenic roads and paths between Ware and Hertford, incorporating sections alongside the River Lee Navigation with the permission of the Canal & River Trust. The varied routes provide an enjoyable challenge, combining riverside scenery with quiet roads and a memorable festival finish.

The event features chip timing, finisher's medals and commemorative T shirts for adult finishers, with prizes across the race programme and junior events for younger runners. Friendly organisation, local support and a strong charitable focus have established the Ware Festival of Running as a popular fixture in the Hertfordshire running calendar.
