Haughley Festival of Running

Woolpit, United Kingdom • 11 Apr 2027

Haughley Festival of Running : ZigZag 2027

The event returns for its fifth year at Haughley Park in Suffolk. It offers multiple fixed distances on a route that uses the park grounds, with mainly pathway surfaces and a short section of trails and woodland.

Distances include:

  • 5k
  • 10k
  • Half Marathon
  • Marathon
  • Ultra Marathon

The course layout uses laps with a water and aid station located at the lap point, reducing the need to carry large amounts of food or drink. The organiser has exclusive use of the main area and open space at the venue. Parking is included and secure on site, with an attendant to direct vehicles and to help participants reach the race number collection point. The event is cupless, so entrants should bring their own cups or bottles for refreshment refilling.

Entries are capped at 300 participants. The minimum age is 18 years and entries close on 09/04/2027. A six hour event cut off applies; a four hour cut off also applies for the later start. Entrants receive an email confirmation that contains a link to the race briefing. Participants may receive a bespoke event medal or, where available, choose a lucky dip from previous medals. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
