About this event
The Northstowe Festival of Running unfolds across one of Britain's newest towns, where contemporary development meets classic Cambridgeshire countryside. The half marathon, 10K, and 5K routes weave through Northstowe's lakeside paths and open fields before venturing into the peaceful lanes around Longstanton village. The flat, mixed-surface terrain makes it particularly appealing for runners chasing personal bests or tackling their first half marathon distance. After crossing the finish line at Western Park, participants can settle into the runners' village, where street food vendors and live entertainment turn the post-race gathering into a proper festival atmosphere. It's a chance to explore a fascinating corner of Cambridgeshire while the landscape is still taking shape around the course.
