Cattle Creep... A Little Further - 8 February 2026

The event is a 10-mile running race set in the parklands of North Milton Keynes. The one-lap route runs along riverside paths and woodland tracks and includes the Cattle Creep tunnel, a low, narrow passage under the Grand Union Canal. The course crosses canal-side paths and has some steps down to the tunnel; the tunnel can be narrow and dark when crowded. The event is canicross friendly and dog-friendly; dogs must be kept on leads at all times and are asked to start at the back for safety.

Facilities and event arrangements

Race packs are collected on the day from the registration tent at the venue. The event provides a water station on course, fully marked routes, marshal support, medical support, chip timing with online results, professional photography, finish-line goodies, and an interlocking finish medal.

The venue is the picnic area adjacent to Watermill Lane Car Park, Watermill Lane, Milton Keynes MK12 5NZ (What3Words: ///riddle.dating.remembers).
