Run290! 2024

This summer, as the Olympic and Paralympic Games spotlight Athletics and Running on the global stage, we're celebrating by hosting our very own virtual run. Join us in connecting London’s 2012 Olympic Park with the Stade De France!

The distance, as the crow flies, is 290 miles from point A to point B. Challenge yourself to complete this 290-mile virtual race by running, walking, or even waddling. You can participate individually, form a relay team of 4, or gather a team of 10 runners. It’s all for fun, but there will be prize draws and spot prizes along the way!

By joining a team it simply allows you to track each others progress and see the accumulative distance you have achieved within your team. Each team member can still upload up to 290 miles each.

The challenge is open to all aged 12+, anyone under 18 will need to be accompanied by an adult when completing their mileage.

Invite your friends or colleagues to join the challenge. We've partnered with Results Base for this event. Entry is just £2 per person, and after covering necessary administration charges, the rest of the proceeds (minimum £1 from every entry) will be donated to England Athletics’ charity foundation, The Personal Best Foundation.

A booking fee of 5% per order will be applied by our online partner Results Base Ltd.
