Other races and event features
The race day also includes shorter races and local events. Distances on the day include:
- 5 miles
- 1.5 miles (fun run)
- 1.5 miles (junior race)
The combined fun run and junior race take place immediately after the main five-mile event. After the races, the annual Baltonsborough Show is held; the show includes a children's Rainbow Run where participants are showered with powder paint at points along the course. A separate charity "Christmas Pudding" race is scheduled for Sunday 21 December 2025, held over the same course as the Five Mile Race; profits from that race go to charity, participants are encouraged to wear fancy dress, and each participant receives a Christmas pudding. Historical race results from past years are available, along with route maps and entry application forms. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
