5880 | 2025 Mar 30 Sun 0900
| Gloucester Half Marathon and 10K half marathon, 10K
| "Venue is Gloucester Park." "The course of the Half follows a scenic route around the pedestrianised city centre streets, passing around Gloucester Cathedral, before heading out around Gloucester and Quedgeley along a closed road circuit and Sharpness Canal Path." Looking at the course maps, the 10K seems to use the early part of that route. "Chip timing." "Medal." "T-shirt is extra." This event was first held in 2024. |

5878 | 2025 Mar 30 Sun 1030
| Cleevewold half marathon
| "Venue is the Postlip Hall." "This is a tough and hilly multi-terrain race. It starts near to the Postlip Hall Tithe Barn and covers the highest points of the Cotswold hills on Cleeve common, before heading into the countryside and returning to Postlip via the Belas Knap neolithic burial mound." In previous years the course was 14.25M but in 2024 it was shortened to nearer 13.1M. This Facebook post says "the race will continue on Cleeve Common and instead of turning right at Wheeler gate it will continue past the pylons and leave the common as usual at Wontley gate - after the race goes past Belas Knap and continues into the field the course will turn left at the end instead of right and will follow the Cotswold Way to Postlip Hall". This 13.1M route will be used in 2025. Here is a map for the old route, i.e., the 14,25M route. |

5877 | 2025 Mar 23 Sun 1030
| Banbury 15 15M
OXONGP | Collect race number on the day." "Race HQ is at the Spiceball Leisure Centre, Cherwell Drive." "The race starts/finishes in Spiceball Country Park." The course is a shaped like a letter P, the out and back bit being about 5M long. This out and back bit starts along narrow paths in the Park. It continues on a footpath that accompanies the A423. The first hill is alongside this main road at about 1.25M. Just after 2M, the course leaves the main road and ventures into the countryside visiting the villages of Little Bourton, Great Bourton and Cropredy. At 5M, the circular 5M bit of the P starts. Here there is a short hill and at 6M there is a longer hill. At the top, you reach a village called Claydon. In my opinion, the nicest part of the course is between 6.5M and 8M: so peaceful on a quiet, narrow lane that crosses the Oxford Canal (between Claydon and Appletree). Unfortunately, this tranquillity is shattered by a significant hill at 8M (and in the future by being only 1K from 225 mph trains on the HS2 railway line). Just after the 10M marker, you complete the circular bit of the course. Just after 11M you meet the last hill which is on the approach to Great Bourton. You know it's coming as you went down it on the way out! "Medal." "There is a junior parkrun within the Park at 0900." |
