Workington Festival Of Running
The Workington Festival Of Running comprises four races held in Workington, Great Britain. Distances on offer include:
- 13.1 Miles
- 10 km
- 5 km
- 1 km (free kids run)
Race numbers are issued at registration, which will be held at Workington Cricket Club. Entries on the day are possible but are subject to a maximum of 200 runners in each race and may incur an additional charge. Withdrawals and number swaps are allowed until 25 July 2026; refunds after that date are not guaranteed and may incur an administration fee.
All races use the same start location as in previous years. Each race will have a lead bike and a sweeper runner. Cumberland AC runners will accompany participants who are unfamiliar with the area to the start. A race safety briefing will take place before each race and first aid provision is available.
Prizes and finisher items vary by distance and include trophies for top finishers in the half marathon, age-category prizes, medals, certificates and drawstring bags for finishers, and sweets and medals for the fun run. Facilities on the day include free massages for runners, showers, toilets, changing rooms, a bar, refreshments, stalls and children's entertainment. Parking is not permitted inside the Cricket Ground except by prior arrangement; nearby parking and signage will direct participants. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
