About Race Calendar

🏃 Built by Runners, for Runners

Race Calendar was created out of frustration with how difficult it can be to find running events in the UK. We wanted a simple, comprehensive resource that makes it easy for runners of all abilities to discover their next race.

Whether you're looking for your first 5K, training for a marathon, or seeking out challenging trail ultras, we've got you covered with hundreds of events across England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland.

🎯 Our Mission

We aim to be the most comprehensive and user-friendly running events calendar in the UK. Our goals are simple:

• Comprehensive coverage - List every running event we can find, from local races to mass participation events.
• Easy to use - Powerful filters that help you find exactly what you're looking for
• Always up to date - Regular updates to ensure accurate event information
• Free for everyone - No registration required, no paywalls, just find your next race

📊 How It Works

We aggregate event information from various sources across the web, including event organisers, running clubs, and entry platforms. Our system regularly checks for new events and updates to existing listings.

Event organisers can also submit their events directly through our submission form to ensure their race is listed.
