Race for Life Newbury 5k

The 5K route begins in front of the grandstand, heading out along the path parallel to the flats that overlook the racecourse. The route then enters the proximity of the racecourse and follows it around the edge for approximately 3KM, before looping around the driving range and heading back towards the event site to finish.

Please be aware the ground can be uneven at times.

Although the majority of the route takes place on tarmac, there is a 1km section of the course which is on uneven and potentially boggy grass. There are also a number of uneven and challenging surfaces along the route. Therefore, the route is deemed not accessible for wheelchair or pushchair users.

Accessible parking will be available in Car Park 4 and the start/finish area is on hardstanding.

If you require any further information on the accessibility of a Race for Life event, or wish to bring a carer/helper to accompany you, please contact our Supporter Hotline on 0300 123 0770 and press 1 when prompted (Opening hours are 8am - 6pm Monday to Friday) or email us at <a href="mailto:[email protected]"> [email protected] </a>

Please remember to bring your own water bottle already filled as there will be no bottled water provided at events. ScottishPower water refill stations will be available to use.

The start and finish lines are on the showground next to the adventure playground. Please use the Rostherene Entrance and follow directional signage and stewards on your arrival.
