Kew The Mile will take place on at 9.45am Sunday 10th April, on closed roads all inside the Royal Botanical Gardens. This is a very flat mile so with good training you'll run a personal best. This brand-new event is after the start of the Kew Gardens Half Marathon as part of the new 'timeoutdoors' KEW THE RUN series.
The Mile event will consist of two waves but is limited to only 300 participants. The first wave will start at 9.45am and will be an all ages competative mile, closely followed by a family mile wave starting 2 minutes after. All races will be chip timed on an officially measured course.

The Richmond RUNFEST and Worthing RUNFEST is organised by RUNFEST LTD (Company Reg No. 08521533). In 2013, the aim was to organise a fun local event in Richmond Upon Thames involving the whole family and the local community.
10 years later we have raised over £4million for our charity partners and have over 10,000 participants at our Richmond RUNFEST event. We are now branching out with a new RUNFEST event in Worthing and another event called Kew The Run in the beautiful Kew Gardens.
From the outset, we have looked to incorporate all the wonderful examples we have witnessed from all corners of the running world. At RUNFEST we do not like to use the word 'NO' and look to incorporate as many peoples ideas and inspiration as possible. We started this event as a blank canvas and continue to add pencil thin structure and lots of colour to it as we go along.
We hope this is just the start of a wonderful journey for the RUNFEST team and hope to include many people from the running community. If you have any colour that you think will look good on the canvas and want to get involved then please get in touch and help us achieve something different!
