RunThrough Relays London at Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park May 2026

RunThrough Relays London is an after-work team relay held at Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park in east London, coinciding with Global Running Day in early June. All teams begin the 5K together at 7:00 pm, making the format more social and crew-oriented than a typical solo road race. Friends, running clubs, and workplace teams form the expected participants, with chip-timed results providing clear competition without making the evening overly serious. The course follows paved paths within the Olympic Park, passing by the London 2012 venues. Each kilometre is marked with distance flags, and marshals direct runners to the finish. Entry includes a themed medal, complimentary race photos, chip timing, and post-race treats. The event village offers food and drink options for teams staying before or after their legs. RunThrough also provides an optional event-logo T-shirt at checkout and highlights its sustainability initiatives.
