Halifax 10K Sunday April 5th 2026  Start 9.00am prompt

We hope you are looking forward to taking part in our inaugural race in just over a week’s time.

For those who entered BEFORE 22nd March - look out for your race number which will be coming through the post in the next day or two.

For those who entered AFTER 22nd March - you will need to allow time on Race Day to collect your number from the Information Tent behind the Start Line.

Please remember that the roads used for the event will be closed from 08.00am (see ROAD CLOSURE LINK for closure and diversion details) so ensure you know the best way to get to the venue.  With over 900 runners, the roads could be quite busy.  We need to ensure a prompt start at 9.00am as there is a deadline to re-open the roads to traffic.

A full list of FAQ’s can be found HERE and the race route map is on this RACE ROUTE.

Live race results will be available after the race on (Halifax 10k, 05/04/2026 : : my.race|result) and we will upload free to copy photos from across the day as soon as we can on the Harriers Website 10K Link  and Facebook.

We will try and issue prizes on the day, so please stick around if you think you might be a winner, otherwise we will post these out as soon as we can after the race.

Thanks and enjoy your Race!
