The small print, in plain English
Before you
enter.
15 and over
Runners must be 15 or over on race day, in line with England Athletics rules. Younger children have the fun run.
Places TBC
Entry numbers are confirmed with the England Athletics licence. If demand supports it we will look at extending the licence, but do not count on it.
Yes, up to a cut-off
Transfers to another runner are handled through the entry platform up to a date before the race. Never run under someone else's number.
See the terms
The refund and deferral rules are set out on the entry platform when you enter. We will summarise them here once entries are open.
One ear only
Bone-conduction or single-ear headphones are fine. Both ears covered is not allowed, because parts of the course are shared paths.
Welcome
It is a friendly, inclusive event. If you expect to take more than about two hours, let us know so the marshals expect you.
When do entries open?
Entries open soon. The date and the entry link will be announced here and on the club's Facebook and Instagram. 2026 sold out, so it is worth entering early.
How much is it?
Prices for 2027 are being finalised and will be on the Enter page as soon as they are agreed. There is a discount for runners affiliated to a club through England Athletics, as required by our race licence.
Can I transfer my place to someone else?
Transfers are handled through the entry platform up to a cut-off date before the race. Details will be on the Enter page once entries are open. Please do not run under someone else's number: it invalidates the insurance and the results.
Can I get a refund?
The refund and deferral rules are set out on the entry platform when you enter. We will publish a plain-English summary on the Enter page.
How old do I need to be?
Runners must be 15 or over on race day to run the 10k, in line with England Athletics rules. Younger children have the fun run.
Ready?
See you on
the riverbank.
