Lincolnshire Run
The Lincolnshire Run is a six hour timed running event held on Lincoln Road in Skellingthorpe, Lincoln LN6 5UU. The course is an out and back loop mainly on a tarmac path following an old railway line, with a short section on the field at the start and finish of each lap. Each lap measures 3.28 miles and there is a 5k turn point.
Typical lap counts described for distances are: a 10k uses two laps of the 5k turn, a half marathon is four laps of the 3.28 mile course, a marathon is eight laps, and an ultra marathon is nine or more laps. Runners must start their final lap within the six hour timed period.
A table at the end of each lap provides water, squash, fizzy drinks and a variety of food. Toilets are located at the pavilion on the playing field. Parking is available at the car park at Skellingthorpe Community Centre. Finishers receive a bespoke Lincolnshire Run themed medal and a goody bag.
The event is licensed by the TRA and is run under UKA Athletics rules. Maximum permitted distances by age are listed by the organisers, for example 5,000m for ages 12-13 and no maximum for those aged 20 and over. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
