Join us in the historic market town of Oundle for the return of the Oundle 20 Mile. And... following the resounding success in 2024, the 10K and 5K races will also be back for a second year!
This is a Nice Work Race
This means that this is an original Nice Work race, fully hosted and organised by us.
Event Overview:
You're going to be in for a treat! This race is ideal for those training for Spring marathons and follows a scenic course around the quiet country lanes in and around the villages of Northamptonshire. And, this year, there's a brand new 10k & 5k to enjoy too!
Course Details:
The 20 mile race is a single lap, on gently undulating roads around the pretty northamptonshire villages of Fotheringay, Nassington, Yarwell and King's Cliffe, – so most definitely PB potential! The 10K runners complete two laps, while the 5K complete one. We are incredibly grateful to Oundle Primary School for their assistance in staging this race.
