Crown To Crown 5K September Evening Race 2026

The Crown To Crown 5K September Evening Race is a measured 5K run at Westley Heights Country Park in Basildon, Essex. It starts at 7:00pm, making it an evening race distinct from a typical morning park run. The setting provides a country-park atmosphere while remaining accessible from town. The route combines trail and road, featuring undulating sections that present more of a challenge than a flat 5K. This event has a long history and attracts runners from across Essex and London. Records of past results are maintained for earlier editions, and a charity fundraising option is offered via GoFundMe.
