About the race
Battersea Park hosts evening Chase the Sun running events on 16 June 2027. The event offers flat, multi-lap courses around the park on wide tarmac paths, starting and finishing at the park bandstand. Each kilometre is clearly marked with distance flags and marshals are present along the route.
Entries include a unique themed medal, chip-timed results, free race photos, post-race goodies and a bag drop. Water stations are positioned on every lap and a bottle of water is available at the finish. A secure baggage marquee is provided; baggage tags attach to the race number for collection.
Course details: the 5 km follows two laps and the 10 km follows four laps of the same loop. Minimum ages are 11 for the 5 km and 15 for the 10 km. A 90 minute cut-off applies because of park restrictions.
Event logistics are centred on an event village at the bandstand. The event village opens at 17:30 and toilets are located there. Race pack collection is scheduled between 17:30 and 18:30. Spectators are welcome and are advised to remain near the event village to view the start and finish. Public transport options include Battersea Park railway station about a ten minute walk and frequent bus services from Vauxhall. Paid parking is available in and around the park.
