Saturn Running - Midweek Medal Madness Run July 2026
This is a 7 hour Time Challenge organised by Saturn Too at The Last Hop, Thames Edge Court, Staines. Participants choose how many laps to complete within the time limit; the minimum recorded distance for a finisher is 3 km.
The course runs along a stretch of the River Thames. It is fully signed and requires no navigational experience. Approximately 60% of the route is on a well-made path or tarmac; the remainder is grass and light trail that can become muddy. Road shoes are suitable year round; trail shoes may be preferred for extra grip. The regular course layout may change pending safety reviews and landowner approval.
Lap details: a full lap is 4.37 miles (about 7 km) but may be changed to a 3.28 mile loop depending on course conditions. There are 3 km and 5 km turn points within the lap to support age-restricted distances. Typical lap counts: three laps for a half marathon, six laps for a marathon, seven or more for an ultra; a 50 km option is also available.
Finishers who complete at least 3 km receive a medal; distance pins are awarded for half-marathon distance and above. Finishers receive a goody bag; a vegan option is available. An aid and drinks table is provided at the start/finish of each lap. Toilets are available at the venue; there are no dedicated changing rooms or showers. Parking is available at Bridge Street Car Park in Staines. A non-secure bag area is provided. Headphones are permitted. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
