ATW Remembrance Runs take place at The Carver Barracks in Essex, the former Debden Airfield, on Remembrance weekend in November. The event supports The Felix Fund and provides four traffic-free distances: a half marathon, 10km, 5km, and a 1 mile race. The races utilize the flat concrete grounds of a disused Second World War airfield, making the running straightforward and fast underfoot. The day commemorates fallen service members, connecting it to the broader Remembrance tradition observed across Commonwealth countries since the end of the First World War. Music is provided on the course, children under eight may participate with a paying adult, and finishers receive custom medals, free event photos, and snacks at the finish.
