Run Aintree - event details
Run Aintree takes place on 19 December 2027 at Aintree Racecourse, Ormskirk Road, Liverpool L9 5AS. The event offers three distances:
- Half Marathon
- 10K
- 5K
The course is mostly on tarmac with a short section on a trail path through the centre of the racecourse. The route is described as flat for road running; the half marathon records modest elevation gain while the 10K and 5K have lower overall gain. Laps vary by distance.
Entries include a unique themed medal, free race photos, chip-timed results, post-race goodies and a bag drop. Water is provided approximately every 5 km on the half marathon and 10K; the 5K does not pass a water station. Toilet facilities are in the racecourse grandstands and are passed at the end of each lap.
Minimum ages are: half marathon 17 years, 10K 15 years, 5K 11 years. Runners expecting to take more than three hours on the half marathon are asked to contact the organiser for arrangements. There is limited free on-site parking. A secure baggage room will be available and race packs are collected on the day.
Wheelchair athletes and buggy runners are welcome but should note narrow sections on parts of the course; only assistance dogs are permitted. An optional event T-shirt is available as an add-on. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
