Organiser's description

Join us for the Goodwood Motor Circuit Running GP on Sunday 21st February 2027

Come and join us for a race day at the historic Goodwood Motor Circuit.

Set at the foot of the Sussex Downs, this world-famous venue offers the thrill of racing on smooth, traffic-free tarmac at the home of the Festival of Speed and Goodwood Revival. Goodwood Motor Circuit is the only classic circuit in the world to remain entirely in its original form, making this a truly unique setting for a chip-timed personal best. First opened to the public in September 1948 for Britain's first post-war motor race meeting at a permanent venue, the circuit combines rich history with a fast, flowing course that runners return to year after year.

Choose from 5K, 10K, Half Marathon, Metric Marathon, 20 Mile, Marathon, or 50K and enjoy a memorable race-day atmosphere at one of the UK's most iconic sporting venues. A Metric Marathon is 26.2 kilometres, offering a brilliant step up from a Half Marathon without taking on the full marathon distance. It is a great option for runners looking to build endurance, try a new challenge, or work toward longer race goals with a more approachable distance.

START TIMES 09:00 - Marathon 09:05 - 50k 09:15 - 20 Mile 09:30 - Metric Marathon 10:00 - Half Marathon 10:30 - 10k 10:45 - 5k

Each kilometre is accurately marked with distance flags and our friendly marshals will guide and cheer you all the way to the finish.

We cannot wait to welcome you to Goodwood!

I ran the full marathon on 26/10/2026 and I thought it was great! Fantastic location, easy to get to. Lots of parking right by the start line. Bag drop if you needed it (I just left everything in the car it was so nearby!). Well laid out and well-staffed. Fantastic price too! I paid less for this marathon (all photos were included for free!) than I paid just for my photos at Brighton! Great venue, great people, cannot recommend enough. I will definitely run it again!

A great course, no kerbs or street furniture. Fairly level and lots of space on track. Some portaloos on the far side of the circuit and bins for gel wrappers and water bottles placed further around the circuit and I would give 5 stars.

The course and event were brilliant. I did not see any toilets signposted on the actual track which could be an issue for the longer distances. I recorded on my fitness watch which I was glad of as the distance markers were not overly clear and a few were knocked over probably due to the bad weather. All staff were really nice and helpful with everything set out and easy to locate on site. Would definitely recommend and go again!

My first time at this location, which didn't disappoint & the number collection point was well organised.
I found the countdown markers to be a little confusing but was able to keep a mental note of my laps.
Toilets were supposed to be available around the track and although I didn't need them, it would have been a problem if someone was caught short.
Keeping to the left as instructed- this worked until the track curved to the left and the faster runners came past at speed.
Headphones- not something that personally affected me but why make rules if they are not adhered to.
I thought that only bone conducting ones were allowed but I saw many other types in use.
Apart from those points I have nothing else but praise for the organisation at the event and hope to participate again soon.

Actual race, volunteers and organisers were amazing.
They were all so lovely and encouraging, cannot fault them at all!
Unfortunately the goodwood food van was lacking, almost all food was sold out so we were very reliant on the post run snacks the team provided.
Definitely would recommend having a proper food van in future.

Great race. Really cool going round the circuit, and not crowded like other races so really good racing conditions. Probably a good place for a PB. The team running it are great too, the logistics of everything was flawless, with good aid stations, and great atmosphere throughout. Really loved it.

I always enjoy the runthrough events. This was well organised and wonderful volunteers. Big shoutout to all the marshals who stood out in the awful weather for hours to cheer us on. I'm glad I've ticked the box. Don't think I'd run this again as it is quite boring and soulless. On a better weather day I think its a good course to get a pb but Storm Ashley put paid to that. Thankyou again to everyone who volunteered.

Great race - well organised, good communication. Really enjoyed it. Due to such a range of races there was a really good vibe despite the horrendous weather. Will love to do again

Would go again and I drove 3hours+ to get there.

The event had convenient parking, not far from the start/finish, with helpful stewards. Race-pack collection was straightforward. Race organisation was very good, especially given the multiple simultaneous race distances. The track is wide and the surface is good. There is a little bit of undulation, but generally a good course for a fast time. It was quite windy on race day, so there were tough and easier sections, which I completed to get my PB!

What a great day out. Well organised and loads of fun. I enjoy the loops of the track (I know a few prefer point to point), and although I didn’t get my PB (got 3rd fastest), my wife got her PB in the half.
I’m totally doing it again next year and a big shout out to the ladies at the Aerodome restaurant for being super sound and friendly to us.

This was a very well organised event. Plenty of easily accessed parking, easy registration, a great warm-up session, pacers for the various time categories, water provision and loads of encouragement. I really enjoyed this 10 km event. Highly recommended.

Good marathon to do. I thought the laps would be bad but actually meant you saw you friends and family a lot and could fuel and drink consistently. Great for a PB with a small hill on the way out and then running in quickly for the end of the lap.

I undertook the 50k Ultra at Goodwood Motor Circuit hosted by Runthrough and it was an excellent event.

The parking was easy to find, fully marshalled throughout and plenty of water throughout the route.

The staff were all friendly and make me feel welcome.

The medal was nice as well.

Only thing I'd change is to have a bit more fuel at an aid station. They bought bananas out after I'd done 7 laps of the track and bananas are a perfect "slow-release" fuel so to have had them earlier on as well, would have been even better.

But no, nothing to fault and I'd definitely sign up to do this event again

Really well organised event, due to it being a racetrack it’s a flat and fast circuit and managed to get a PB! Would defiantly do again!
