ATW Bedford 5 & 10
This event offers two distances:
- 5 miles
- 10 miles
The race uses a 5 mile lap that starts and finishes on the Bedford Embankment near Russell Park in Bedford. Runners head out toward the Town Bridge, cross the river, then return along traffic-free paths beside the River Ouse. The route includes a loop around Priory Lake and returns to the Embankment on firm tarmac or hard-packed paths. The course is flat with less than 100 m of elevation across the full lap.
The 10 mile option completes the lap twice by bypassing the finish area on the first circuit. The event is chip timed and traffic free. A professional commentator is present at the finish area and caterers provide food and drink for spectators. Finish line snacks and a custom designed medal are provided.
A free children’s fun run takes place before the 10 mile start; no prior booking is required and participants register on arrival. The event partners with a charity and offers opportunities to donate and fundraise during checkout.
ATW does not offer refunds or transfers to another person. Entries can be transferred to any future ATW event up to 48 hours before the original event date.
There is no allocated parking for this race; several parking locations in Bedford are within a short walk of the race headquarters. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
