Event overview

You're in for a treat!

This race is ideal for those training for spring marathons and follows a scenic course around the quiet country lanes in and around the villages of Northamptonshire. And, this year, there's a brand new 10K and 5K to enjoy too.

A great way to prepare for an upcoming marathon. David A

runners

The 20 mile race is a single lap, on gently undulating roads around the pretty Northamptonshire villages of Fotheringay, Nassington, Yarwell and King's Cliffe, – so most definitely PB potential. The 10K runners complete two laps, while the 5K complete one. Appreciation goes to Oundle Primary School for their assistance in staging this race.

This event is part of Oundle 20 Mile, 10K & 5K.
