About the race

PHOENIX Fridays is a series of timed running events held at Xcel SPORTS HUB Stadium with a 5.3 km out and back course along the river Thames on a riverside towpath. The lap length is 5.3 km (3.28 miles) and the event format lets participants complete as many or as few laps as they wish within the overall time limit of seven hours. The minimum distance is one lap, 3.28 miles. This particular Run for a Tenner event charges a £10 affiliated entry fee and a £12 unaffiliated entry fee.

The £10 Run for a Tenner amount is allocated to the Rays of Sunshine Children s Charity, and these charity runs feature a double sided Rays of Sunshine medal. All participants, whether attending in person or running virtually, receive a finishers medal or memento. The course is off road trail on a towpath and is described as flat with no elevation gain or loss. Distances can be chosen on the day by completing the required number of laps, so advance distance selection is not required.

Places are strictly limited. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
