About the race

The Canterbury Riverside 10k is a measured 10 km out and back run along the river between Chartham and Canterbury, starting from the Chartham Village Hall car park (The Glebe, Station Rd, Chartham, Canterbury CT4 7HZ, UK). The course is described by participants as flat and fast, with riverside scenery and some narrow sections where runners meet oncoming traffic.

Event facilities include use of the village hall before and after the race, reported refreshments (tea and cakes) sold on a cash-only basis, and a water station around 4 km offering fluids and sweets. Finishers receive a medal and event paperwork or a ticket with an official time has been mentioned by participants.

Participant feedback is mixed: many reviews praise organisation, friendly marshals and volunteers, and the peaceful riverside route; other comments note muddy or wet conditions at times, limited shade on sunny days, occasional unclear signage or a low number of marshals, and a small uncovered cattle grid on the route. The event is organised by Running & Riding and carries an aggregate rating of 4.6 from 209 reviews. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
