Gatwick 5k Race | Run Gatwick

Introducing the annual British Airways Run Gatwick 5k race. This is the perfect distance for new runners that want a challenge, but not the full 13.1 miles of the half marathon, or for experienced runners that prefer a shorter, faster race.

The Gatwick 5k race is a fully closed, single-lap route that starts in pretty Southgate Park and works its way through Crawley’s lively town centre. This event is brought to you by the team behind the award winning Run Reigate which was voted the UK’s best half marathon in 2017.
