Naseby 1645
Naseby 1645 is a 16.45 mile road race held in rural Northamptonshire that passes seven Battle of Naseby 1645 memorials and viewpoints. The course starts and finishes at Naseby Village Hall, Haselbech Road, Naseby NN6 6DE, where a bag drop area is available for small, labelled bags.
The route is entirely on roads, many of which will be closed to traffic for the event. The course is undulating with a total ascent of 289 m. In line with UKA rules, headphones are not permitted other than bone conductor types. A GPX file and course accuracy and licence documents are available for the route, which starts just outside Naseby Village Hall.
On-course support includes water stations at about the 3, 6, 9 and 13.5 mile marks and at the finish. Race numbers contain timing chips and must be collected from registration on the morning of the race; numbers are not posted before the event. Because road closures are in place, organisers advise that entrants should be confident of completing the distance within four hours. Minimum age for entry is 18 years on race day. Entries and transfers close seven days before the event.
Race Harborough organises the event and a proportion of entry fees for 2027 will go to the Bruce Green Foundation, a charity working with young people in Northamptonshire. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
