Naseby 1645
The Naseby 1645 is a 16.45 miles road race through rural Northamptonshire that passes seven Battle of Naseby 1645 memorials and viewpoints. Race headquarters, start and finish are at Naseby Village Hall, Haselbech Road, Naseby. A bag drop area for small, labelled bags will be available inside the village hall.
The route is entirely on roads and remains unchanged from 2025. Many roads will be closed during the event. The course is undulating with a total ascent of 289 m. In line with UKA rules, standard headphones are not permitted; bone conductor devices are allowed. Water stations are provided at about the 3, 6, 9 and 13.5 mile marks, plus one at the finish.
Organisers advise that runners should be confident of completing the distance within four hours, which equates to an average running pace of about 14 minutes 35 seconds per mile. Minimum age for entry is 18 years on race day. Entries and transfers close seven days before the event. Entry prices are listed at £32 for UKA affiliated runners and £34 for unaffiliated runners.
There will be trophies for the top three male and female finishers and a specially commissioned event medal for all finishers. Free digital race photos will be available after the event. A proportion of entry fees for 2026 will be donated to the Bruce Green Foundation. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
