CS Lewis 5 Mile Challenge

The CS Lewis 5 Mile Challenge, held at CS Lewis Square in Belfast, is a multi-terrain running event featuring an out-and-back course. Starting beneath the iconic Aslan statue, runners follow the Greenway to Victoria Park, where they complete four varied loops over trail, grass, and concrete surfaces before returning along the Greenway to the square. The event celebrates the legacy of Belfast-born author C.S.

Lewis, with inspirational quotes displayed around the course. The square provides a festive atmosphere for pre- and post-race activities. Prizes are awarded to top finishers and age category winners, alongside spot prizes including local ales. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
