Blenheim 7k

Held on 17 May 2026 at the World Heritage site Blenheim Palace in Woodstock, Oxfordshire, this event uses the palace grounds and trails for multiple running options.

The main event is a 7k route (measured as 7.4k) that passes the palace, crosses the Grand Bridge and includes an off road lakeside section that is unique to the 7k. The course is described as undulating and follows paths and trails around the estate.

The event offers several participation choices and arrangements for different needs. A separate 7k canicross race allows runners to take part with dogs; participants are asked to use a lead and harness and to follow RSPCA guidance. There is a 4 mile route that omits the lakeside section to suit wheelchairs and buggies, though organisers note the course can be challenging for wheelchairs and assistance may be brought. A 1 mile fun run for under 15s starts before the other events so parents can watch and then take part in the main run.
