Yabba Dabba Doo 2026

Yabba Dabba Doo is a September running event held at Chasewater Visitor Centre in Burntwood, Staffordshire, starting at 9:00am. Participants can select 5K, 10K, half marathon, or marathon distances. The race is structured around 5K laps, allowing runners to complete any number of laps they wish. The course circles Chasewater reservoir on a marked, flat, fast, and firm path. The surface combines hard stone with pathways, offering a direct rather than technical route. This format is suitable for runners aiming to increase their distance, as they can add laps without committing to a single long course. How Hard Can It Be Events organises the race, which has had several previous editions.
