Chase the Sun Battersea Park 5k & 10k
Chase the Sun Battersea Park is a set of timed running events held at Battersea Park with the Bandstand as the start and finish location. The course follows wide tarmac paths, is described as flat, and is measured with kilometre flags along the route. Friendly marshals are positioned around the course to provide guidance and encouragement.
Entries include a unique themed medal, free race photos, chip timed results, post race goodies and a bag drop. The 5k covers two laps of the park and the 10k covers four laps. Water stations are positioned on every lap and a bottle of water is available at the finish. There is a 90 minute cut off time due to park restrictions.
Practical details on race day include an event village with toilets, a secure baggage marquee where runners attach a baggage tag to their race number, and a group warm up before each race. Minimum age rules apply: 5k minimum age 11 and 10k minimum age 15. The event welcomes buggy runners and wheelchair athletes with a request to be mindful of other participants.
