A group of runners pose and smile in front of a "Phoenix Running" tent at an outdoor event. Some wear race bibs and athletic gear, standing on grass with tents and buildings in the background. Aerial view of a long, straight rowing lake surrounded by green trees and grassy banks, with rowing teams visible on the water and a boathouse in the distance under a clear sky. A cartoon duck wearing blue sneakers holds a colorful umbrella labeled "PHOENIX Running," leading four ducklings through a puddle of water.

Phoenix Running Cambridgeshire is inviting you to join us for our first event at our brand new location, Thorpe Meadows in Peterborough. A picturesque park, your lap takes in several of the sculptures that surround the rowing lake, you also run alongside the river Nene and finish the lap through a wooded trail.

Our first event here is Duck Waddle.

This is one of our timed events where you choose - from 5km to 10k, half to marathon to ultra, you can complete as many, or as few, laps as you like of a 5.3km, 3.28 mile loop course around Thorpe Meadows. We welcome all abilities of runner - complete one lap and you're both a finisher and a winner in our eyes, or keep going and see how far you can get in the full 6 hour time limit and everyone gets the fabulous bespoke finishers' medal.

We also operate our uniquely flexible 'rock up and run' start times within a 1 hour start window, so no waiting around if you arrive early and no added pressure if you're running a bit late.
