On 11 October 2026, the Oswestry 10K is set to once again bring runners to the heart of Shropshire, starting and finishing in Oswestry town centre at Church Street / Smithfield Street. The certified 10K course is a single loop, described as undulating but fast, with both urban and rural stretches and a scenic downhill section toward the finish. Fully closed roads, chip timing, and strong volunteer support make the event safe and enjoyable, while one mid-course drink station provides on-route refreshment. Race packs are posted to UK runners who register more than four weeks in advance, while international and late entrants collect bibs on race morning. With age-group awards, bespoke medals, and its role in raising funds for Hope House Children’s Hospice, the Oswestry 10K blends performance running with community impact.
