Sunday 27th January is an important date for Farnborough as it hosts the third Farnborough Half Marathon, returning after a sell-out first and second edition. Home of the world famous Air Show, Farnborough was crying out for a major running event and now, with the full support of Rushmoor Borough Council, we are pleased to say the town has one established - The Farnborough Winter Half Marathon.

If you're looking for beautiful scenery then look no further than the Longleat 10km; starting in front of the magnificent Longleat House the race takes in the estates private, and traffic free, roads, with only a short excursion of 400m on public highways as you pass the Bath Arms pub before the 1 mile down hill finish.

This is the 10th running of the Rotary 10k, run in early May to capture the delights of the Bluebell carpeted woodland on Headley Heath, near Leatherhead. Effectively an out and back, undulating lap course (with one hill on each lap), featuring pleasant open and woodland paths, and spectacular views, and, of course, a carpet of bluebells.

After 14 years we are making some changes to the format of the classic South Downs Marathon Day. The routes of marathon and half marathon themselves remain unchanged but we are taking out the marathon relay and introducing a trail 10km in Queen Elizabeth Country Park.

The Surrey Bacchus Marathon and Half Marathon returns - your chance to enjoy Englands premier Wine Marathon with five tasting stations (serving six different wines) over the Half Marathon and ten over the full Marathon.

Half of the route is inside the beautiful Denbies Wine Estate and the other half through National Trust Countryside and woodland along the Pilgrims Way and North Downs Way. It's a demanding route, but you'll have suitable respite at each of the sampling stations, then at the finish you can carry on the party spirit of the event at the post-race Hog Roast (Not included for the childrens run).

Recently, we began offering the Bacchus Lite 10km event that you can run, jog or walk. The route will be within Denbies Vineyard, through the vines and offers magnificent views - one wine sample station will be reached and the post-race Hog Roast is included for your entry fee.

The Do It For Charity Santa Run is now in its 9th year and is Londons LARGEST Santa Run. Put runners in fancy dress and suddenly a run around the park becomes 10 times more fun! This is definitely the case with the annual London Santa Run! Join 2,000 others Santa's in our annual 'Red & White' bearded charge around Battersea Park in this 5k festive fun run.
