Join Phoenix Running Cambridgeshire for an inspiring day of running at Riverside Park St Neots on Sunday, October 18th. This event is part of our ongoing partnership with Saint John Henry Newman Catholic School and their chosen charity, KiSS (Kids Support Scheme). The school community will be out in full force to raise funds that support children and families in Uganda through education, health services, and community development. The race offers a flexible format suitable for all abilities. Participants can choose from various distances including 5km, 10k, half marathon, or even challenge themselves with an ultra-distance run on our scenic course around Regatta Meadow and the River Great Ouse. The out-and-back route covers 3.28 miles (5.3 km) and features a flat terrain ideal for personal best attempts. Registration opens at 7:30 am, allowing runners to start anytime between 8:00 am and 9:00 am within our relaxed "rock up and run" format. This means you can join the fun whenever it suits your schedule without feeling rushed or pressured by strict start times. The event includes a generous six-hour time limit for those looking to push their limits. The course winds through Riverside Park, offering stunning views of the River Great Ouse and picturesque Regatta Meadow. Whether you're aiming for one lap or planning an endurance challenge, each finisher will receive a bespoke medal celebrating your achievement. All participants are encouraged to contribute by donating £5 per entry, with Phoenix Running Cambridgeshire matching every donation made on race day. This collective effort supports KiSS's mission of empowering Ugandan communities through education and health initiatives. Don't miss this opportunity to support an incredible cause while enjoying a beautiful setting and the camaraderie among runners. Space is limited, so secure your spot now for what promises to be an uplifting experience in St Neots. Join us at Riverside Park on October 18th for a day of running, community spirit, and making a difference.

About St Neots
Learn more about the host city, St Neots.
St Neots is a riverside market town just north of the border between Cambridgeshire and Bedfordshire.
