Lee Valley Velo Park October 2026

Lee Valley VeloPark October is a multi-distance road running event held at Lee Valley VeloPark in east London. It uses the floodlit one-mile circuit constructed around the London 2012 Olympic venue. Participants can select a half marathon, 10 miles, 10k, 5k, or a 1-mile and junior race. All races are on tarmac, featuring a gentle rise and fall instead of a flat park path. The event is lap-based: the half marathon covers 13 laps, the 10-mile race uses 10 laps, the 10k is 6 laps, the 5k is 3 laps, and the mile race completes one full lap. Each mile split is chip timed, allowing runners to monitor their pace, though no pacers are provided. RunThrough supplies marshals, chip-timed results, free race photos, a themed medal, post-race treats, and an event village with food and drink near the finish.
