About the event

THE\_URBAN\_RACE returns to Battersea Park's Millennium Arena, transforming the heart of London into an energetic summer playground on July 24-25, 2027. This unique race features eight thrilling stations and runs, each a compact yet intense 500 meters around the refurbished 400m track with stunning views of Battersea Power Station looming in the background.
Participants can expect a dynamic atmosphere with live DJs spinning tracks throughout the day, enhancing the electric vibe as runners complete their functional fitness challenges between sprints. The event is designed for small waves starting every five minutes, ensuring that each athlete receives personalized attention and support from spectators seated in the covered grandstand.
Last year's edition saw over 2,000 athletes tackle this fast-paced course, making it a perfect venue for both newcomers to hybrid racing as well as seasoned racers aiming for personal bests. Companies and clubs can also book full waves on Saturday for team-building events or competitive fun. Whether you're running solo or with a partner, THE\_URBAN\_RACE offers an unforgettable blend of athleticism and entertainment that caters to all levels of runners looking for a unique challenge in the heart of London.

Scenic view of

London is the capital and largest city of England and the United Kingdom, with a population of 9.14 million people in 2025. Its wider metropolitan area is the largest in Western Europe, with a population of 15.4 million. London stands on the River Thames in southeast England, at the head of a 50-mile (80 km) tidal estuary down to the North Sea, and has been a major settlement for nearly 2,000 years. Its ancient core and financial centre, the City of London, was founded by the Romans as Londinium and has retained its medieval boundaries. The City of Westminster, to the west of the City of London, has been the site of the national government and parliament for centuries. London grew rapidly in the 19th century, becoming the world's largest city at the time. Since the 19th century the name "London" has referred to the metropolis around the City of London, historically split among the counties of Middlesex, Essex, Surrey, Kent and Hertfordshire. Since 1965 it has largely comprised the administrative area of Greater London, governed by 33 local authorities and the Greater London Authority.
