Derby Running Festival

Derby Running Festival at Elvaston Castle Country Park in Derby offers a multi-distance weekend featuring 5K, 10K and Half Marathon events. In its third year, the festival uses a flat, multi-terrain course through the castle grounds, past the hall and the Golden Gates. The Run Britain/UKA licensed, officially measured race welcomes runners of all abilities.

Distances are run as loops: 5K is one lap, 10K two laps, and Half Marathon four laps plus an out-and-back section. Entry includes a unique themed medal, free race photos, chip-timed results and post-race goodies, with an optional RunThrough Kit technical T-shirt to suit preference and sustainability aims.
