Battersea 10k 

SATURDAY 14TH FEBRUARY 2026

This is an extremely fast, flat course that boasts real PB potential. It’s a 4-lap 2.5km circuit starting and finishing on the track, with a lot of straight line running and sweeping turns. The course is protected from the elements on both sides by a tree-line.

For operational reasons, the time-limit on the day is set at 40mins for 10k.
