About the Event

Experience the thrill of running on the historic grounds where London's 2012 Olympic rowing events took place at Dorney Lake. Nestled near the picturesque village of Dorney in Buckinghamshire, this purpose-built rowing lake offers a serene and scenic backdrop for runners to push their limits.
The flat terrain around Dorney Lake provides an ideal setting for chip-timed races over 5k, 10k, or half marathon distances. The course is meticulously designed with smooth roads that cater to all types of runners looking to achieve personal bests in a supportive and inspiring environment.
Participants will start at 9:10 am across all race categories, ensuring they have ample time to soak up the tranquil atmosphere before setting off on their journey around this beautiful lake. Each lap offers stunning views and an opportunity for athletes to challenge themselves against the clock.
For those tackling the half marathon distance, expect a total elevation gain of just 27 meters over four laps with U-turns at each end. The 10k race covers two laps with only 15 meters in elevation change, while runners competing in the 5k event will complete one lap and encounter an even flatter route with minimal elevation changes.
Whether you're a seasoned runner or just starting out, Dorney Lake presents an unforgettable opportunity to run through some of England's most beautiful countryside. Join us for what promises to be an exhilarating day on this historic course.
Enjoy the race!
