The Other Run : Suffolk Running Centre, 25 April 2027
The Other Run is a road running event held at Suffolk Running Centre, Church Road, Bury St Edmunds, IP29 5AX on 25 April 2027. It takes place on the same day as the London Marathon and offers several distance options for participants.
Available distances
- 5k
- 10k
- Half marathon
- Full marathon
The full marathon uses the Kirtling Route, an officially measured, fully on-road course described as mildly undulating and scenic. The half marathon is a single loop on the Windmill Route. The 5k and 10k routes use a turnaround point for shorter distances.
Aid stations supplying drinks and light snacks are placed approximately every 10k along the longer routes. Parking at the venue is included in the entry price. The event operates cupless, so runners are expected to provide their own bottles or cups for refilling. The course runs on quiet country roads; participants should be aware of traffic when stepping out and are advised to wear bright clothing for visibility.
Organisers provide a bespoke finisher medal for the event. A lucky dip finisher medal option may be available. A commemorative T shirt is offered for purchase through the organiser's shop. Selecting the marathon distance may make a runner eligible for a marathon GFA place. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
