The event will take place on fully closed roads inside Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, Southwest London. Flat as a pancake and just as tasty! The course record is an amazing 29mins and 57secs and they were not even ran in the modern super shoes.

Flat, tarmac, professional measured and certified. London's flattest 10K!

This is still London's flattest 10k and even flatter than last years Kew Gardens 10k. The new course has net drop of 5ft and only a total of 63ft gain the whole course. The new course now starts outside the Hive on the beautiful Broadwalk and finishes outside the famous Palm House. The perfect spot for a pre London Marathon training run.
