About the 5k event

The original and most popular Race for Life event, the 5k is an entry-level distance and an achievable first challenge for most. At just over 3 miles it can take about an hour to complete on average, but there's no pressure to finish in a certain time. Walk, jog, run or make your way around the course however suits you to fund life-saving research.
On the day

While your entry fee covers the cost of your event, it's the money you raise that will fund vital research and see more people surviving cancer.

There is limited parking at River Park Car Park so please use city centre car parks on the day. North Walls Recreation Ground is a short walk from the centre of town.
The Winchester course is mainly on grass around the fields of North Walls Recreation Ground and Winchester Rugby Club. Due to these elements we deem the route as suitable for wheelchair users with assistance.
