Swiftathon brings together the fun of a live tribute-style pop show with the buzz of a 5K or 10K run.

Whether you’re a seasoned runner, a complete beginner, or simply love era-inspired pop anthems, Swiftathon is designed to be welcoming, accessible and full of feel-good energy from start to finish.

Run, jog, walk or dance your way around the course through one of the city’s most iconic parks, with music keeping the atmosphere high every step of the way.

Fun run with great marshalls and organisers. Medal and finishers bag had lots of taylor themed stuff, and are great take-aways from the event. The run itself was hillier than I had expected, and the music was not well synced around the course so overwhelming sensorily at times. But we managed and it was a great morning
