Every year, between June and August, Queen's Park Harriers join 8 like-minded community based running clubs based throughout London, for a series of 5 mile and 10 kilometre senior races, junior races and relays.

​

Runners score points both individually and for their clubs, with bonus points based on your age.  We could try explaining the scoring, but it wouldn't make sense - and it doesn't really matter - anyone can score points, regardless of ability, and everyone is welcomed and celebrated.

The mixed relays are a massive highlight, where the younger and older runners have the opportunity to score bonus points for their clubs, resulting in amazing teams where 8 year olds run alongside and against 70 year olds.

​

Think parkrun, crossed with a summer fete, but with medals, a shield, local pride at stake, and cake - lots of cake.
