The Richmond Autumn Riverside 10k and Half Marathon Run
Love Running! Get all your friends and come and join us for our Richmond Autumn Riverside 10k Run or take on the Half Marathon. A stunning flat and fast run route. The location is amazing and the scenery is stunning. Running along the riverside from Richmond towards Kingston and back you have views of the river for most of the way.
Starting at the Riverside carpark off Ham Street (see course map) you will run along the riverside towards Kingston, then head back almost as far as Richmond before following the towpath back to Ham House to finish by the Riverside.
We are proud to deliver the best in safety, fun and high quality organised events. So get all your friends together and come and join us. Make sure you sign up early to secure your entry as this run sells out quickly.
About the Charity Partner
We are very pleased to be supporting the Brain Tumour Charity. The Brain Tumour Charity is at the forefront of the fight to defeat Brain Tumours. 102,000 people are currently living with a brain tumour and the impact can be devastating. Research into brain tumours is woefully underfunded. Survival rates are just 14% and treatments haven't changed in 40 years.
We know progress isn't happening fast enough. We need to do more, if we're going to find a cure. And we need to do it now. That's why at The Brain Tumour Charity we're investing in more forward-thinking research, more specialist support services, and passionately lobbying for more urgent change. Brain tumours strike fast. But we believe that can be the generation that stops them – right in their tracks.
Please note, fundraising is completely optional and there's no requirement to do so, however if you decide to support the Brain Tumour Charity and join #TheBrainyBunch! there is no minimum fundraising target, just raise what you can and help us accelerate towards a cure! In return you’ll receive your very own charity running vest, to help you look the part on the day, and a fundraising pack full of materials and fantastic hints and tips to kickstart your fundraising and make your place in the Riverside 10K Run really count!
