The Rubber Ducky Dash - North
The Rubber Ducky Dash - North is organised by Saturn Running at Herrington Country Park in New Herrington on 20 September 2026. The event is licensed by the Trail Running Association and is held under UK Athletics rules.
The event is run as a 7 hour Time Challenge that lets participants choose their own distance. The minimum recognised distance is 3 km. A full lap is listed as 4.37 miles or 7 km, though the loop may be changed to a 3.28 mile route depending on conditions. A 3 km turn point and a 5 km turn point are provided within the lap for age compliance. The lap structure equates to three laps for a half marathon, six laps for a marathon and seven or more for an ultra; a 50 km option is also available.
Finishers who complete at least 3 km receive a rubber duck themed medal and a rubber duck. Distance pins are available for half-marathon distance and above and are attached to the medal ribbon to indicate achievement.
Facilities and services include toilets at the venue HQ, on-site parking, an aid and drinks table at the start and finish of each lap with savoury and sweet snack options including vegan choices, and a goody bag with a vegan alternative. There is a non secure bag drop area. Headphones are permitted and participants should be considerate of other path users. Final race instructions are emailed in the week before the event and race numbers are issued at on-site registration.
Entry prices range from £18 to £29. Members receive a £10 discount on the lowest entry price, guaranteed entry and a mini medal pin. Runners in UK Athletics affiliated clubs receive a £2 entry discount. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
