Course Details

A predominantly flat course with a slight hill. One of the fastest courses that RunThrough organises which will enable you to get the PB you were looking for. Starting and finishing at the historical Hyde Park Bandstand.

5k= 2 laps; 10K= 4laps

There WILL be pedestrians, Hyde Park is London busiest outdoor area so you will encounter pedestrians/dogs – please be aware. We have marshals around the course and signs but this is not a road race, you have to pay very close attention to where you are going. We recommend you do not use earphones and you need to pay close attention to everything around you.

Baggage

We will have a secure area where you can leave your baggage. We recommend you bring as little baggage as possible. Your baggage tag is attached to your race number, you simply tear it off and attach to your bag. To collect, show your number to the baggage tent staff and they will help you find your baggage.

Toilets

Hyde Park has two sets of Male and Female toilets one near to the bandstand which is virtually on the course and near the start/finish and another set next to The Old Police House. We recommend arriving early if you plan to use the toilets. Please note that these toilets require a contactless payment.

Refreshments

There will be water provided on each lap of the race, as well as at the finish alongside bananas and of course flapjacks!

Well organised 10km, 4x laps mostly flat and a good running surface. Goood marshalling, toilets & start/fijish. All out effort all the way, enjoyed it!

I took part in the 10k around Hyde park with 2 other friends as part of a mental health and wellness journey, and I’m so glad that I did! The race was extremely well organised and the run was on a beautiful course (4 x 2.5km laps), I hit a PB and it was purely due to the atmosphere and cheering on from the volunteers on the day. Thank you everyone!! We’ll be back for the next one!

Enjoyable Well Organised Event. Ran the Hyde Park 10k yesterday. Very well organised and appreciative of the 20ps for the toilets and support around the course. Looking forward to the next race in preparation for the marathon in April.

Not the best run though event. I have done lots of races with run through and I generally love them but this one was not the greatest. Not the best route and it felt a bit subdued

A well organised race. It was very calm, organised and such fun. The route (5k - 2 laps) was relatively easy with a good stretch of downhill. The Marshalls were enthusiastic and encouraging. The medal we get was great quality. All in all, a great first 5k!

Well organised fun race. Communication was good and easy to locate the start. Quick and easy to get number and bag storage available. Well marshalled course which was 4 laps round a segment of Hyde park for 10k which I enjoyed. Medal, energy drink and kind bar at the end was a nice touch along with our time. Would do again and try other locations :)

Great event. Well organized and friendly staff. I had a hiccup with my entry and the team were super helpful and responsive. The day of the event was fun and ran smoothly (excuse the pun!). Loved it and would be more likely to choose another race run by runthrough over another organizer.
