See Bedford like you never have before. Take to the streets for 10K of fun before being welcomed across the finish line at sunset to our post-race, festival party. Get your stretch on at one of our free yoga classes then grab a beer and some street food and party to live music from local Bedford musicians while the sun sets over the stunning Embankment and river area of the town.

We can’t guarantee PB’s but we can guarantee fun. And don’t forget your medal and finish line goodies!
