Ramsbury Run 2026
Sunday 10th May 2026 will be the staging of the Ramsbury 5 mile, a village based multi-terrain race, with a junior event for children. The main course will start and finish at the Ramsbury Recreation Centre where supporters cheer on participants before a celebratory BBQ. All event proceeds support our local young people via the Ramsbury Scouts.
The Course
The Ramsbury Run is a multi-terrain run around the outskirts of Ramsbury. The 5 mile course is undulating and covers footpaths, roads and local bridleways. The ground can be uneven, but the views are beautiful as you circumnavigate the 5 mile route around the picturesque village of Ramsbury and where it nestles around the river Kennet.
Our Sponsors
We are immensely grateful for the generous support of our sponsor without their encouragement and financial contributions, it simply would not be possible to stage the race.
Major sponsor: The Capricorn Foundation finances the cost of both the running and the conservation of the Ramsbury Manor Estate, including its properties and its Collection, and provides donations to both local Ramsbury and national charities”
