Morpeth 10K, 27 June 2027
The event is a closed-road 10 km race in Morpeth, Northumberland, with a separate junior race on the same day. The start and finish are beside Morpeth’s historic clock tower in Market Place, NE61 1HG.
The 10 km course is predominantly flat and includes town landmarks before moving onto a two-lap loop through the surrounding countryside. The course is officially measured and each kilometre is marked with distance flags. Chip timing is used and results contribute to national rankings.
To help the race flow, entries are organised into two start waves: 10K A Race for sub 40 minute runners and 10K B Race for over 40 minute runners. A 90 minute time limit applies to reopen local roads. The minimum age for the 10K is 15. The junior race offers a shorter distance for younger runners.
Included with entry are a unique themed medal, free race photos, chip-timed results, post race goodies and a secure bag drop. Water is available at the 5 km point and at the finish. Marshals and distance flags guide runners around the course. The event village hosts food and drink options and race pack collection takes place on the day; participants should bring their booking confirmation and photo ID.
The event welcomes pram and wheelchair participants and provides a secure marquee for baggage. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
