Mount Ephraim 10k & 5k

Set against the picturesque backdrop of Mount Ephraim Gardens, this beloved Kentish racing gem returns on August 8, 2027. The event offers runners an unforgettable experience with its stunning countryside setting and challenging yet rewarding routes.
The main attraction is a scenic 10k course that winds through quiet country lanes surrounding the magnificent estate at Mount Ephraim Gardens. Known for its breathtaking views of rolling hills and lush greenery, this route has earned praise from RunABC as an "absolute gem." Whether you're a seasoned club runner or someone who simply enjoys the thrill of racing, there's something to appreciate here.
For 2027, organizers have introduced a brand new 5k distance in response to popular demand. This shorter option provides runners with a more manageable but equally beautiful course through the same picturesque countryside. Both distances offer an opportunity for all abilities and running preferences to find their perfect fit.
The event also includes a dedicated Junior Run, allowing young athletes to experience race day excitement under safe conditions. Aspiring racers can enjoy the thrill of crossing the finish line while contributing positively to their community.
All participants will benefit from various amenities such as free parking within Mount Ephraim Gardens and entry into its grounds for post-race relaxation or exploration. Additionally, each runner receives a bespoke medal commemorating this special day. Free photographs capture memorable moments along the route, ensuring that your experience is documented with high-quality images.
The event supports Oasis Domestic Abuse Services, raising essential funds to help over 1500 adults and 350 children affected by domestic abuse in Kent & Medway each year. By participating, you contribute to a cause dedicated to ending violence and promoting safe homes for all residents of the region.
