Race For Life Crawley 2026

Race For Life Crawley begins and ends on grass in Tilgate Park, with participants gathering on the western side of Tilgate Campbell's Lake. The event provides 3K, 5K, and 10K distances. The 10K starts at 10:00 AM, and the 3K begins at 11:00 AM. This is a park run, not a road race. The shorter distances are suitable for those seeking a manageable local event, as well as runners wanting a longer morning run. The course follows paths around Tilgate Lake and the nature reserve, then goes through woodland areas with some climbs, descents, loose gravel, tree roots, and uneven terrain. The 10K consists of two laps of the 5K route, meaning runners experience the same combination of lake paths and woodland twice. Rain can make sections of the ground muddy. The organisers note that the course is not suitable for wheelchair users. Onsite parking, limited accessible parking, local bus services, bike racks near the Smith and Western restaurant, toilets, and refreshments are available, but there is no bag drop.
