Reading Running Events

*EVENT CANCELLED*

Take part in the Conquer The Chilterns Trail Half Marathon this September, in the heart of the Thames Valley and only an hour away from London.

This is one of the most scenic trail runs in the country with a fantastic course around the Chiltern Valley and surrounding areas.

All runners will start together at 12:30pm

The event will have full car parking facilities available, which will be in operation to allow participants to come and go, whilst the event is still taking place and makes it perfect for spectators and family to attend and soak up the atmosphere.

The Cotswold Classic is a firmly established event in the local running calendar and is once again part of the Oxfordshire County 10 Mile Road Race Championship.

Its a relatively hilly/undulating course with one particularly long climb known locally as the hillzakilla (total elevation gain is 518ft). There is, however, a very fast finish with the last mile and a half being more or less downhill from New Yatt.

All advance-booking finishers will receive a long-sleeve technical shirt. We also expect them to be available for most on the day entries but cant guarantee it simply because we dont know how many runners will turn up (and we prefer profits to go into next years race or to our charity rather than down the plughole) so best to enter in advance.

ActiveTrainingWorld are excited to announce the inaugural Kempton Park Chase! Kempton Park is a stunning venue situated in Surrey. All three courses are flat, fast and entirely traffic free.

Due to demand & following the hugely successful Royal Windsor Marathon and Half Marathon River Trail Run, we are excited to announce the NEW Windsor Marathon Half Marathon River Trail Run taking place this October!

Enjoy a fast and flat 13.1 mile route through historic Oxford that kicks off from City Centre. You'll speed by world-famous museums, universities, parks and more on this one-of-a-kind run. You're sure to finish feeling both accomplished and cultured.

The flat route embraces Reading's waterways for much of the distance, offering an appealing, multi-surfaced course that takes in rural, modern and historical areas of the town and surrounding countryside.

Chip-timed Half Marathon, 10km, 5km trail runs taking in views of the River Thames and Windsor Castle.

Theres a 1km event (walk or run) for those who want to enjoy the beer run experience with less running (!!) and a Family Fun Run for those with young children.

All participants receive medals.

Test your navigation and strategy by entering one of the four off-road adventures we have organised. Using a waterproof 1:25,000 OS map which we provide, navigate trails and hills on foot and bike to collect as many checkpoints as you can in the set time. You plan your own strategy and route, deciding how many CPs you want to visit and in what order. You will lose 1 point for each 30s you are late coming back. All checkpoints are worth 10 points each. Distance covered depends on how many checkpoints are visited, and depends entirely on your level of fitness, as well as your running/biking and map reading skills.

If you want to get a personal best Half Marathon this should be the one - it is the flattest course in the UK!
