Naseby 1645
The Naseby 1645 is a 16.45 mile road race held on Sunday 14 February 2027 that follows a route through rural Northamptonshire and passes seven Battle of Naseby 1645 memorials and viewpoints. The course starts just outside Naseby Village Hall, is run entirely on roads, and has a total ascent of 289 m.
Race HQ and the start/finish are at Naseby Village Hall. A bag drop for small labelled bags will be available inside the hall. There is no parking at the village hall; a free shuttle bus operates from Market Harborough where parking is available on a Sunday. A drop off and pick up point will also operate in Naseby. The shuttle journey takes approximately 15 minutes each way.
Organisers operate road closures for the event and advise that runners should be confident of completing the distance within four hours. Race numbers with timing chips must be collected from registration on race morning; numbers will not be posted out.
Entries are priced at £34 for UKA affiliated runners and £36 for unaffiliated runners. The minimum age on race day is 18 years. Entries and transfers close seven days before the event.
The route includes water stations at about the 3, 6, 9 and 13.5 mile marks and at the finish. Headphones are not permitted in line with UKA rules other than bone conductor types. Trophies will be presented to the top three male and female finishers and all finishers receive a commemorative event medal.
The race will be run in aid of the Bruce Green Foundation; a proportion of entry fees is directed to the charity. Race merchandise can be pre-ordered up to three weeks before the event; merchandise will not be available for purchase on race day. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
