Local Upcoming Run Races

As there is so much going on we thought you might like a one stop shop of races going on in and around our local area.  Below we'll try to list anything that might be of interest as a runner, from 5ks to Marathons and more.   Some of these races are not always pusblished on the bigger on-line sites like Runners World and offer great value for money and a chance to enjoy some of our own local stunning Kentish scenery. 

If we have a website link we'll show it and also whether you can enter on the day (OTD) if known.  Where entry fees are shown they are for affiliated and unaffiliated respectively.  Please note that entering on-line may incur additional costs (not shown below).

If you know of something going that's not listed here, please drop the Run Captain an email via the Contacts Page and we'll get it added to the page!
