Folkestone Coastal 10k

About

This event is an exhilarating, fast and flat race along the seafront. In recent years, we have included an elite wave to the race so that runners of all abilities can enjoy the wonderful race-day buzz of Folkestone Coastal. The chance of a fast time is just one of the reasons why this race has always been popular. Another reason is its suitability for runners of all standards - from experienced athletes to those with limited race experience and first time runners. We even have a popular and dedicated junior race. The start line atmosphere is electric; the spectator support is magic; the vibe and camaraderie are hard to beat. We'll see you there!


CHARITY Race Entry
If you select to register for the race on a CHARITY ticket, then your entry will include an additional £5 donation to our charity of the year, The Sports Trust. The Sports Trust is a not-for-profit charity that dismantles barriers to sports participation. They recognise sport as a powerful tool for social improvement and drive it to its full potential.
