Welcome to the Runderwear Festival of Running!
We have created the Runderwear Festival of Running, which will take place over the Easter weekend between 2nd and 4th April 2021.
A virtual race will give us a purpose to our training, but it doesn’t replace the collective positivity that training and racing with friends generates, so this has to be more than just a race!
Between now and race weekend, let’s make some new running friendships and encourage one another to stay focused and positive.
Team Runderwear will help as much as possible with 8-week Training Plans, race leaders to help you stay positive and focused, live social interviews and discussion forums. Choose your distance, 5k, 10k or Half Marathon and enter early to receive a discounted entry fee plus a free training plan to match your experience, created by England Athletics Road Running Manager, Tom Craggs.
How much does it cost?
£10 entry (AUS$17.93 & US$13.90)
£1* of every entry will be donated to Mental Health Mates (See below) *AUS$1.79 & US$1.39
What do I receive?
