Our junior races are so popular, we were voted the Best Child-Friendly Event in the UK in The 2017 UK Running Awards!
1k Race
The Junior 1k is the perfect introduction to running for your little ones – a fun, no pressure environment, and a distance that’s achievable and enjoyable.
3k Race
For the 9-14 age group and at 3k in distance, this is a great race for younger runners. It offers a challenge in a mixed field and is a great race for building up to longer distances, but most importantly its fun!
