Mallard Cake Dash
The Mallard Cake Dash is a road race held at Westwood Lakes, Boston, organised by Trident Sports Events. The event offers two measured distances on mainly traffic-free paths and is described as a flat, scenic course.
Participants choose between:
- 5K
- 10K
The event emphasises clear course markings and staffed marshals. There are no cut-off times and walkers are explicitly welcomed. Every finisher receives a Trident medal, a slice of cake and a drink.
The race began in 2023 under the Trident Sports Events banner. It sold out in 2024 with 350 entries and again in 2025 with 450 entries; capacity was increased to 500 places for 2026. Organisers report a calm and supportive atmosphere on race day, and participants often comment positively on organisation and on-course support.
Information about the course layout and pre-event details is provided to entrants. The Mallard Cake Dash is presented as a community-focused autumn road race held on mostly traffic-free paths around Westwood Lakes. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
