Run a 10K for charity
Welcome to our charity 10K runs page. If you're stepping up the distance for the first time, taking on your first 10K should be easily achievable with a bit of training and if you're a seasoned 10 km runner then the fundraising might give you a new kind of challenge.
Whatever your motivation, crossing the finish line knowing your efforts have supported vital research or provided support to those in need means that you'll experience the transformative power of setting and achieving goals and you'll join a community of like-minded runners.
Ready to take that first step? Browse our events to find a charity 10K and cause that resonates with you then join their charity team today!
