Race Information

The Lingfield 10s are scenic and challenging multi-terrain races located in the rural south east corner of Surrey. There are two races: 10 mile and 10 k. (Both race distances are approximate)

The race venue is Lingfield College.

Organised and marshalled by Lingfield Running club, the 10 mile race has been a popular fixture in the race calendar for many years. The 10 mile route is hilly, but incredibly scenic with some stunning views along the top loop, plus more hills! The 10 k is also a top quality multi terrain race but but less hilly! The routes are signed and marshalled by Lingfield Club volunteers.

All runners will receive a warm welcome back at Lingfield College where tea, coffee, and more importantly, a good selection of cakes, will be available to purchase.
