About the race
Middlesbrough Runs comprises two town-centre road races held on 30 August 2026, with a Families on Track session at Middlesbrough Sports Village on 29 August. The event is organised by Events of the North and uses Centre Square, Middlesbrough TS1 2BF, as the event village location.
The course is described as flat and fast and runs through town-centre streets and along the Riverside. Public roads on the route are closed for the duration of the races. Course signage and marshals will be in place at key junctions, and electronic chip timing is used for accurate start and finish times.
Facilities and inclusions listed for entrants include a medal and goody bag for all finishers, secure baggage drop, water stations on the route and water at completion, prize categories for top finishers and first V40, V50 and V60, plus an event village with stalls and food and drink options. Race numbers and timing chips are posted to UK entrants in batches; overseas entrants must collect their packs from Race Information on the event weekend.
Entry details note minimum ages, entry fees and a £2 discount for UKA members, a closing date of midnight on Wednesday 26 August or when entries sell out, and that no entries are accepted on the day. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
