About Running in Kent on Verus

Kent has one of the broader calendars Verus covers: 26 races spanning 6 distances, from 8 10Ks, 7 half marathons, 7 races at other distances, 2 5Ks, 1 marathon and 1 ultra marathon. A county with that range is one you can train a whole year in without leaving.

Racing here runs more or less year round — there is something on in 10 months of the twelve, with September the busiest. That makes Kent unusually easy to build a season around, because you are rarely more than a few weeks from a start line.

Alongside the races, Kent has 27 parkruns — free, weekly, and the way a lot of people here got started.

Smaller local races we've indexed but not written a full guide for. We link straight to the organiser rather than keeping you here — there's nothing we could tell you about these that they don't tell you better.
