Phoenix Running Cambridgeshire - Christmas Gonk
Phoenix Running Cambridgeshire holds a post-Christmas event around Grafham Water on Sunday 27 December 2026 at Marlow Car Park, Grafham, Cambridgeshire. The event uses a timed format with a clearly marked 5.3 km (3.28 mile) out-and-back lap.
Participants may complete as many or as few laps as they wish to reach a chosen distance. Available distance options include:
- 5 km
- 10 km
- Half marathon
- Marathon
- Ultra
The minimum recorded distance is one lap (3.28 miles). There is a six hour time limit for the event. The organisers operate a flexible "rock up and run" policy within a one hour start window, so runners can begin during that period rather than at a single fixed time.
The course follows tarmac cycle paths with a small section of gravel and has minimal elevation gain or loss, making it a relatively flat route. All finishers receive a physical giveaway medal. Distance restrictions under UK Athletics rules apply to participants aged 20 or under. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
