Duxford Dash 2026

The Duxford Dash offers 5k, 10k, or a 1 Mile Family Dash on the airfield at IWM Duxford in Cambridgeshire. The main races begin in the morning, followed by the family mile. The schedule is compact as the airfield must reopen by noon. Imperial War Museums and Good Running Events are the organizers, catering to individuals aiming for a chip-timed personal best and families seeking a brief run together. The airfield location is the primary attraction: runners participate in a closed-site race at a venue linked to aviation history, with museum entry included in the race place. Thousands of runners have participated previously, and finishers receive a themed medal. Race shirts are available for pre-purchase and collection on the day. Children may enter the family dash accompanied by an adult chaperone; under-fours participate without charge. Spectators can purchase additional tickets during booking to explore IWM Duxford post-race.
