Bramley 20/10 Road Races 2027

The Bramley 20/10 Road Races begin at Bramley Primary School, located near Basingstoke in Hampshire. Both 10-mile and 20-mile races take place on the same February day. Reading Roadrunners organize this event as their main fixture, and it has been part of the race schedule for nearly 30 years. Its timing is particularly beneficial for runners preparing for spring half marathons and marathons. The course follows mainly rural roads and lanes, giving it a countryside feel rather than an urban one. It is mostly flat, with minor inclines around the 6 and 8-mile marks. These offer runners a good opportunity for a personal best without making the course too easy. The 20-mile distance appeals to marathon trainees seeking a substantial long run with race support, while the 10-mile option is suitable for runners looking for a challenging early-season race.
