Organiser's description

Stunning Race Location:

The TWIN LAKES 20 is a stunning 10-mile or 20-mile race that will prepare you for your Spring half/marathon experience without having to run alone. Enjoy the incredibly scenic, superfast, traffic-free course through the stunning Milton Keynes countryside.

NEW START TIMES FOR 2027 – MORE SPACE, BETTER RUNNING

For 2027, we’re introducing separate start times to give everyone more space and an even better race experience.

10 Mile – 08:45
20 Mile – 09:15

Using actual pace data from our 2026 runners, our modelling shows that the 30-minute stagger will reduce the number of 10-mile runners on the narrow canal section during the key crossover period by around 89%.

That means less congestion, easier overtaking and better race flow, while allowing us to keep the familiar Twin Lakes course.

And remember our unique 20-mile option: enter the 20, run just one 10-mile lap if you choose, and you’ll still receive your medal, tech T-shirt and official 10-mile time.

Whether you’re chasing a PB, using the event as key marathon training, or simply soaking up the atmosphere, the 2027 start time change will deliver an even better race-day experience for every runner.

Please help raise funds for Willen Hospice!

Dirt Running

Dirt Running organises the popular Dirt Half Challenge, which takes place in mid-November on a Saturday. The race starts in the historic market town of Leighton Buzzard and completes an anti-clockwise lap of Tiddenfoot Waterside Park before following the picturesque autumnal Grand Union Canal towpath north to Stoke Hammond with stunning views, climbing through beautiful countryside to Great Brickhill. The route then passes through the scenic Rushmere Country Park woodland before following the Greensand Ridge back to the start via the canal towpath and finishing with a clockwise lap of Tiddenfoot Waterside Park.
