Route description

The Supernova 5K route at the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park starts at the magical setting of the ArcelorMittal Orbit. The route then heads north running parallel to the Stratford Waterfront before taking a right over the bridge towards the inspirational London Aquatics Centre. The route then swings back down over the bridge before meandering north throughout the magnificent Olympic grounds.

Pass the Olympic stadium before heading south along the canals for your last kilometre. You’ll finish right where you started, wishing you could do it all over again!

Entry fees

This is a really fun event - the glowing Orbit at the start/finish and everyone running in head torches through the Olympic Park. This is the 3rd year completing Supernova London with the kids and the marshals always offer amazing support to help little legs get round the course! Emma K

This was a fabulous little race, very well organised, proper toilets, somewhere warm to stand inside, and very well marshaled. The goody bag was pretty good and included a drawstring bag and a buff and you get a free head torch. Katherine R
