Event overview

The ATW Bedford 5 & 10 is a chip-timed road running event held on 25/01/2026 at Russell Park, Bedford, Bedfordshire, MK40 3RH. The organiser is Active Training World. The event includes a free children’s fun run held before the 10 mile race; no advance booking is required for the fun run.

The 10 mile race completes the same lap twice, bypassing the finish area on the first lap. The course is described as well marked and marshalled.
