SATURN TOO - Midweek Medal Madness Run August 2026

SATURN TOO stages a midweek Medal Madness Run on Friday 21 August 2026. The series aims to keep entry costs low so participants can build their numbers or pursue personal goals at an affordable price. The event is organised by Saturn Too Limited as a franchise partner of Saturn Running.

This is a seven hour Time Challenge that gives participants control over the distance they run. The minimum official distance is 3 km, which is part of a lap. A full lap measures 4.37 miles or 7 km and may be changed to a 3.28 mile loop depending on course conditions. Inside the lap there are 3 km and 5 km turn points to allow compliance with UK Athletics age rules. Specific lap counts used as guides are listed below.

• Minimum distance 3 km
• One full lap 4.37 miles or 7 km (may change)
• Half marathon 3 laps
• Marathon 6 laps
• Ultra 7 or more laps, 50 km available

The course runs along a stretch of the River Thames and is fully signed. The surface is mainly well made paths and tarmac with a very short grass section, so road shoes are suitable year round. The regular course may be adjusted after a health and safety review.

Finishers who complete at least 3 km receive a themed medal and a goody bag; a vegan goody bag option is available. Distance pins are issued for half marathon, mega-half, marathon, 50 km and ultra distances. An aid table and drinks table are provided at the start/finish of each lap with a mix of savoury, sweet, fruit, cheese and vegan items. Toilets and changing facilities are available at the venue and there is space to leave a bag although this is not a secure storage service. Headphones are allowed. The event is held on public footpaths and participants are asked to be considerate of other users. Maximum entrants 300; entries close 20/08/2026. Transfers and deferrals are permitted under the organiser's terms and fees. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
