About Headington 5
Taking place on 23 August 2026, the Headington 5 Mile is a road race organised by Headington RoadRunners as part of the Oxfordshire Grand Prix Series. The 5-mile course forms a flat loop starting and finishing at Boults Lane Recreation Ground in Oxford, using pathways alongside the Northern Bypass and Marston Ferry Road through Sunnymead. The route is largely traffic-free, offering runners an opportunity for fast times on an accurately measured course run under UK Athletics rules with chip timing.
The race is based at OXSRAD Sports Centre, with prizes across a wide range of age categories. Proceeds from the event support OXSRAD, Oxford's integrated sports centre for disabled and non-disabled athletes.
