The most comprehensive list of 5k Runs in and near Oldham in 2026 - 2027. Find your perfect race!
Oldham isn't where most runners come for a PB attempt. It edges into the Pennines, and the hills often show up from the first mile, which means 5Ks here tend to be harder and slower than you’d expect. Tandle Hill Country Park and the Saddleworth Moor fringes are worth the effort though - it's hard going, but you come away feeling like you've actually achieved something. 10K runs in Oldham give you more of those hills if that's what you're after.
Have a look through the listings below. When you need something flat, the Rochdale Canal towpath provides a decent break from the hills. Alexandra Park is the most central option if you want to stay in town. Half marathons in Oldham and marathons in Oldham are there when you're ready to go further.
