About 2026 Blenheim 7K Fun Run
This is no ordinary 5k or 10k run!
World Heritage site Blenheim Palace in Woodstock, Oxfordshire is the magical location for this family-friendly fun run with a beautiful lakeside section.
Run, jog or walk, there are four events to choose from and one great day out: the main 7k, 7k + dog, 4 miles for buggies and wheelchairs* and 1 mile for under 15s.
Run for fun, or fundraise to support your nominated charity,
The main 7k
The 7k takes a magical route around the trails and paths of the Palace, including a spectacular lakeside section. The course (which is actually 7.4k) offers a challenging run and magical surroundings.
7k + dog
Bring your canine best friend (must be properly equipped with suitable harness and lead) and follow the 7K route.
4 mile
The 4-mile route follows a similar course, missing out the off-road lakeside section to make it suitable for wheelchair* and participants pushing buggies. Note that undulating route can be challenging for those with wheelchairs, but you can bring assistance to get round).
1 mile
The 1-mile race is for under 15s and will start before the main 7k and 4 mile events meaning that parents can watch their children and participate in the 7k run. The Junior Race will start at 10.15am and the 7km and 4-mile races at 11.00am.
The event is perfect for a group or workplace challenge, and participants can choose the charity they want to support or simply participate for fun. Bring a team of friends, family and colleagues. You can add your team details during the registration process and enter the team trophy for the fastest team.
The registration process is handled by Eventrac. Click below to register to run.

You would only be asked to help for the morning and have the rest of the day to enjoy at Blenheim Palace. Some refreshments will be available at Race HQ for volunteer marshals.
