Midweek Medal Madness Run April 2026
This is a seven hour Time Challenge event based at The Last Hop, Thames Edge Court, Clarence Street, Staines. Participants may choose how many laps to run within the time limit; the minimum distance for an official finish is 3 km. A full lap is listed as 7 km (4.37 miles) but may be adjusted to a 3.28 mile loop depending on course conditions. A half marathon equals three laps, a marathon six laps, and seven laps or more count as an ultra. A 50 km option is also offered.
The course runs along a stretch of the River Thames and is fully signed. Surfaces are mainly made paths and tarmac with a very short grass section; road shoes are suitable year round. The regular course may be changed for health and safety reasons.
Finishers who complete at least 3 km receive a medal. Distance pins are awarded for half marathon and longer distances; available pins include Half Marathon, Mega Half, Marathon, 50 km and Ultra. A goody bag is provided to finishers and a vegan goody bag option is available. An aid and drinks table is located at the start/finish of each lap and includes savoury, sweet, fruit, cheese and vegan items.
Toilets are available at The Last Hop but there are no separate changing rooms or showers. Parking is available at Bridge Street Car Park in Staines. The event is organised and managed by Saturn Too Limited, a franchise partner of Saturn Running. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
