Love Luton is delighted to host the 12^th running event for the town.

Love Luton is delighted to announce the 2025 Runfest for 12th October 2025. We are initially going live with a 5k and 10k. For those who have previously taken part, there will be some tweaks to the courses to support the growth in numbers and the slightly refreshed courses will be shared next year. In addition, we are exploring if we can introduce a new half marathon course. Unfortunately, we cannot use our current course in the Luton Hoo as the estate is undergoing an extensive refurbishment programme. Further information will be announced in the new year.

Rest assured, we will start and finish in the town centre, and the courses will take you through award-winning parks and on our traffic-free, closed roads, ensuring a safe and enjoyable running experience.

All participants will receive a souvenir medal, and there will be prizes for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place for males and females in all races. The Danny McCormack Memorial Young Person’s trophy will also return in 2025. 

New for 2025, we have a brand new Love Luton Runfest event t-shirt. You can purchase yours HERE

With the overwhelming demand this year, we urge you to secure your spot at the Runfest as soon as possible to avoid missing out on this exciting event.
