Chase the Sun Battersea Park 5k & 10k
Chase the Sun Battersea Park takes place on 28 July 2027 at the Bandstand in Battersea Park, London (SW11 4NJ). The event offers chip-timed road races on a measured multi-lap course that stays entirely within the park.
- 5k - 2 laps, minimum age 11
- 10k - 4 laps, minimum age 15
The course is flat with an elevation gain listed as 0 m and runs on the park's wide tarmac paths. Both races start and finish at the park bandstand and follow repeated laps of the same route, which makes the course easy to follow and convenient for spectators.
Included with entry are a unique themed medal, free race photos, chip-timed results, post-race goodies and a secure bag-drop. Water stations are positioned on every lap and a bottled water is provided at the finish. Toilets are located in the event village.
Event logistics note a 90-minute cut-off time due to park restrictions. The organiser provides an event village that opens before the races and offers food, drink and finish-line refreshments. An optional official event t-shirt is available at checkout, and a RunThrough Foundation Place entry option is offered with no fundraising requirement. Accessibility provisions welcome buggy runners and wheelchair athletes, with a request to be mindful of others when overtaking. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
