Organized by Run For All, the City of Lincoln 10K is a popular and well‑loved 10 kilometer road race that showcases Lincoln’s historic beauty, winding past the Roman Walls, through stunning city gardens, and finishing near the majestic Lincoln Cathedral. The course is notably fast and flat, ideal for runners chasing a personal best as well as newcomers enjoying the city's vibrant atmosphere and supportive crowds. Participants receive chip timing, a finisher’s goody bag, exclusive medal, and there’s an option to pre-order a finisher’s T-shirt; after the race, the lively Event Village unfolds around Lincoln Castle with refreshments and celebration. The 2026 edition is set for 12 April, beginning at 10:00 AM, and continues the tradition of bringing thousands of runners and spectators together in the heart of historic Lincolnshire.
