Event overview

How far will you run in the 6-hour time limit?

How it works

  • Once registered, you'll start running at 7am
  • The course is 3.28 miles per lap
  • There's a 5K turnaround point (the 10K is 2 laps of the 5K lap)
  • Complete 4 laps of the 3.28-mile course for a half marathon
  • Complete 8 laps for a full marathon
  • Complete 9 or more for an ultra marathon!
  • There's a fuel station at the end of each lap - which means you carry less
  • You can start your last lap up until 5:59:59 hrs.
  • The course is along the River Thames
  • It's out-and-back with no navigation - so simple and sociable
  • Toilets and parking are nearby
