Event Overview
The Badlesmere 10K takes place in the North Downs Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty in Kent. The route features scenic countryside and provides professional chip timing for all participants. The event is hosted at the Badlesmere Village Hall and surrounding lees, with 100% of the profits supporting the local community-run facilities and charity.
Participants can choose from the following distances:
- 10 km
- Kids' Race
The 10 km course is composed of countryside terrain and is described as challenging in places rather than a flat and fast route. The race is open to both runners and walkers. For the main distance, participants must be at least 18 years old on race day.
Facilities and Logistics
The organizers provide several on-site amenities to support participants. Free parking is available at the venue, and a public bus stop (Stage Coach No. 666) is located adjacent to the parking area. The site includes recently refurbished toilets, changing facilities, and a free bag drop service.
During the race, there are three water stations positioned along the course. Medical cover and first aid are present throughout the event. Race packs and bib numbers are collected on the day of the event at the registration area. Following the race, participants receive a bespoke finishers' medal. Refreshments and food are available at the start and finish area. Prizes are awarded across various categories, including overall winners and age-specific groups such as V40, V50, and V60.
