Ashby 20

The Aldi Ashby 20 is an award-winning 20-mile road race held in Ashby de la Zouch, organized by runners for runners. Established in 1988, this event features a scenic two-lap route primarily on closed roads, making it an excellent preparation for spring marathons. Participants receive a famous Ashby 20 hoodie and a goody bag upon finishing.

The race emphasizes safety with strict cut-off times to ensure roads are reopened promptly. The event supports local charities, including Teenage Cancer Trust, and fosters community involvement. It is a not-for-profit initiative aimed at promoting running and supporting charitable causes. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
