Midweek Medal Madness Run : Feb 2027
The event is a seven hour Time Challenge held from a base at The Last Hop in Staines. Runners choose their own distance with a minimum official finish distance of 3 km. A full lap is stated as 4.37 miles (7 km) but may be changed to a 3.28 mile loop depending on course conditions. The course runs along a stretch of the River Thames, is fully signed, and is mostly well made paths and tarmac with a short grass section; road shoes are suitable.
UK Athletics rules apply and the event is licensed by the Trail Running Association. The organiser is Saturn Too Limited, a franchise partner of Saturn Running. The event includes 3 km and 5 km turn points within the lap to meet UK Athletics age restrictions. Typical lap counts given are three laps for a half marathon, six for a marathon, seven or more for an ultra, and a 50 km option is available.
Finishers who complete at least 3 km receive a medal. Distance pins are provided for half marathon and longer distances; one pin is attached to the medal ribbon to reflect the achievement. All finishers receive a goody bag and a vegan option is offered. An aid and drinks table is available at the start/finish of each lap. There is parking at Bridge Street Car Park in Staines. Bags may be left at the start/finish area but are not secured. Headphones are allowed. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
