Welcome to the Richmond FAMILY MILE.
This year we have moved the usual Sunday 'Kids' Mile & 500m' to Saturday 16th September and are replacing it with a family mile funrun.
HOW TO ENTER
Online registration has closed but you can still register on race day at the kids registration tent in Old Deer Park. The price of entry on race day is £12.50.
WHAT
The new Richmond Family Mile is a funrun for all ages above 5. This is NOT a race and the intention is to allow the whole family get involved (especially children). There is NO time limit for entrants. Every runner with a bib receives a RUNFEST triangle medal and NIKE Tee shirt at the end.

The Finish
Parents are NOT allowed in this area. Children running by themselves will be handed back to parents at the end of the finishing shoot once the parent is identified. We ask parents to assist our staff by being patient during this time. No child will be permitted to leave the Safe Zone without their parent/guardian to collect them.
The Festival
The festival is complete with live music, the Richmond Food & Fitness Expo and the London Pride bar and champagne tent (for the thirsty adults).
About
The Kids’ Mile, created after the 2012 Olympics with the help of NIKE UK, is part of our Olympic Legacy. Our little runners will be supported by TEAM GB Olympians on the day and with the help of our partner NIKE, every child will be chip timed and receive the best NIKE race t-shirt and cool medal. The race starts in Old Deer Park with live music cheering on our stars of the future.
