Eggcellent Easter Orange Run
The Eggcellent Easter Orange Run is a timed event held at Runnymede, taking place along the River Thames. Participants have access to a 7-hour time limit, allowing them to determine their own distance by completing multiple laps of a central course. This event is the first in a five-day Easter series.
The course consists of a loop which is approximately 7 km (4.37 miles) long, though this may change to a 5.28 km (3.28 mile) loop depending on the ground conditions. The terrain is a mixture of approximately 60% tarmac or well-made paths and 40% grass and light trail. The route is fully signed and follows public footpaths along the river. Available distances include:
- 3 km
- 5 km
- 10 km
- Half Marathon
- Marathon
- 50 km
- Ultra Marathon
Specific turn points are provided for 3 km and 5 km distances to accommodate younger runners. Those completing at least one lap or the minimum 3 km distance receive an Easter egg themed medal. Runners who achieve a half marathon distance or further also receive specific distance pins.
Facilities at the race headquarters include toilets, changing rooms, and a cafe. An aid station at the start and finish of each lap provides a variety of sweet and savoury snacks, including vegan options. Parking is available at the Runnymede Pleasure Grounds on a pay-on-exit basis. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
