Sri Chinmoy 5K Races in Battersea Park
The Sri Chinmoy Marathon Team organizes a series of running events in Battersea Park, London. These races take place on Tuesday evenings throughout the summer season. The events are held on flat, traffic-free courses consisting of loops within the park grounds.
The race series includes several different formats and distances:
- 5 km (Dashing Deer 5K, Hasty Hare 5K, and Kangaroo Hop 5K)
- 3 x 1 mile relay (Battersea Relays)
All courses are UK Athletics Course Accuracy certified, and the races carry UK Athletics Race Permits. Results from these events are officially recognized by Power of 10. The 5K races finish on East Carriage Drive near the Athletics Track, while the relays are held along the South Carriage Drive with the start located just inside Rosery Gate.
Participants must register online in advance, as there is no registration available on the day. Registration typically closes three days before the event or when capacity is reached. A bag drop service is provided at the Race HQ. While a water station is available on the course, participants are encouraged to bring their own water for post-race hydration. The event site is accessible via rail through Battersea Park and Queenstown Road stations, or by local bus services. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
