This year of racing has certainly not gone as planned. But we are overjoyed to be welcoming you back to our start lines.

Our priority is your safety which is why we have introduced a whole host of measures such as waved starts, contact-free registration, and controlled capacity at our events to guarantee they are COVID-safe.

Our COVID measures have already been tried and tested at multiple events, for which we have received outstanding feedback.

Here are some of the race reviews from the Imperial War Museum Duxford Dash which was awarded a five-star rating for safety and a four-point-eight star rating overall on racecheck!

Paula Scott wrote, “On arrival it was very clear that the team at Duxford had thought about everything and I was very impressed by the rolling start…I'll be back 100%.”

While Ryan Jarvis commented, “In spite of the virus I felt safe and secure all day…plenty of consideration went into making the event COVID-secure.”

What events are coming up?

Every weekend till the end of the year we have a race on offer, so it is now down to you to make the most of these final few months! 

For those looking to smash a PB in a London Park, check out our Monthly 10K’s at the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park and the one-off VeloPark 10 Mile by the Mornington Chasers on Sunday 17 October.
