Route information
Our annual Doughnut Dash is back yet again by very, very popular demand, I mean who doesn't like doughnuts, oh and running. This event usually sells out months in advance so please enter early if you can.
The medals are totally awesome, double sided, magnetic and with reversible ribbons, so if you really can't decide then simply have both, and, of course, 2025 has all new medal / doughnut colours!
The Doughnut Dash is going to be as much about eating doughnuts as it is running and lots of fun is always had by all - CHOMP!
This is one of our timed events where you choose - from 5km to 10k, half to marathon to ultra, you can complete as many, or as few, laps as you like of a 5.3km, 3.28 mile, out and back, course along the beautiful river Thames. We welcome all abilities of runner - complete one lap and you're both a finisher and a winner in our eyes, or keep going and see how far you can get in the time limit and everyone gets the fabulous bespoke finishers' medal.
Not sure? Well the beauty of this format is that you don't even need to decide in advance, simply come and run a lap and see how you feel on the day and keep on going if it feels right.
Places will be strictly limited so don't leave it too late to enter.
Minimum distance is 3.28 miles or as far as you can go in the time limit. Off road trail, the terrain is riverside towpath. The overall course has no elevation gain / loss making this a flat and fast route.
