The Greenway Challenge 2026

The Greenway Challenge takes place on 10 May 2026 in Letchworth Garden City, starting and finishing at Standalone Farm, Wilbury Road, SG6 4JN. It is a self-guided run around the Garden City Greenway. The course is approximately 13 miles and is run in a clockwise direction. This event is a run rather than a race because of road crossings.

Entry, rules and facilities

The event is held under UK Athletics rules and has a minimum age of 17. Participants are responsible for following the provided route; a map, written instructions and a GPX file are supplied. Marshals will be present at road crossings but will not stop traffic, and participants are responsible for their own safety. There is a time limit of 3 hours, after which marshals will stand down. All finishers will receive a wooden medal. Refreshments and cake are provided at the finish. Entry fee is £20 until 31 December 2025 and £22 from 1 January 2026; a £2 discount applies for members of clubs affiliated to their national association. Profits from the event will be given to the club charity GRIT, which supports teenagers with mental health issues. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
