Warrington Running Festival 5k

The Warrington Running Festival 5k starts and finishes at the Golden Gates of Warrington Town Hall, on a closed-road course through the town centre. The route is flat, with just around 8 metres of elevation gain over the full distance, making it an accessible option for beginners and casual runners as well as those chasing a fast time. Because roads are closed for the event, the course is free of traffic throughout, taking in the historic streets around the town centre before returning to the finish. Marshals are positioned along the route to guide runners and cheer them on, with distance markers along the way. The race finishes back at the Golden Gates, close to the lively Bank Park event village, with food vendors and entertainment for runners and spectators alike. It's a great entry point into the wider Warrington Running Festival weekend.
