Middlesbrough Runs
Middlesbrough Runs is a town-centre running event on 30 August 2026 that features two mass-participation races. The courses are described as flat and fast, routed along town streets and the Riverside, with parts of the course traffic-free and lined by marshals and signage.
Entries include chip timing, a medal and goody bag for finishers, secure baggage drop and prizes for the top three male and female finishers plus first veterans in V40, V50 and V60 categories. Water stations are provided on the route and finishers receive water on completion. An Event Village at Centre Square hosts partner stalls and food vendors.
Distances on offer:
- Ali Brownlee 5K - minimum age 11, entry fee £17
- Middlesbrough 10K - minimum age 15, entry fee £29
The event notes road closures in the town centre to protect runners and advises checking transport options because some car parks and roads will be affected. Volunteers support key areas such as water stations and busy junctions. The event mentions charity partners including Zoe’s Place Middlesbrough and Red Sky Foundation. The organiser provides race packs by post for UK entrants and on-site Race Information for those who need to collect numbers. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
