About The Event

Join Saturn Running for our first Dogs Trust Trot in Durham! The aim of this run is to raise money and awareness for The Dogs Trust. The medal is awesome and definitely one to collect!

Date & time: Sunday 12th of April 2026
Official start time 9.30am

Location: Durham Amateur Rowing Club, Green Ln, Old Elvet, Durham DH1 3JU

Distance & Time

This is a 7 hour Time Challenge event which allows you full control over the distance you want to run. The minimum distance is 5km, which is part of a full lap. A full lap is 4.37 miles (7km) and you can run as many or as few of these laps as you wish in the 7 hour time limit. Please note, we may use the 3.28 mile course at this venue and we will advise closer to the time.

Course

The course is along a beautiful stretch of the River Wear with views of the Cathedral and is classified as a trail run. It is fully signed so no navigational experience is required.

All abilities are welcome at our super-inclusive events and we also welcome walkers too.

Medals & Pins

As long as you complete one lap, you will be an official finisher and you will receive one of our fantastic dog themed medals! We also have distance pins available for anyone who runs a half-marathon distance or more. Pins available to collect are our Half-Marathon, Mega-Half, Marathon, 50km and Ultra pins. You will receive one pin on the ribbon of your medal to reflect your achievement.

As this is a run to raise money for The Dog's Trust, for an additional £3.00 donation you can receive an incredible Dog's Trust pin to add to your medal ribbon, not just that but Saturn will match this £3.00 donation to the charity!

Goody Bag

Absolutely! You have earned these replacement calories after all, so all our finishers get a great goody bag. You will have a selection of goodies to choose from. As well as our standard goody bag, we have a vegan goody bag too. Please let us know if you are vegan or if you prefer a vegan goody bag when you enter and we can have this ready for you.

Aid Table

We have a fantastic aid table and drinks table at the start / finish of each lap. There is an incredible selection of drinks and savoury or sweet snacks such as crisps, cheese, fruit and cookies with vegan options also available.

Special Event

If our event is a special event for you, for instance your 50th, 99th, 100th, 150th, 200th, 250th etc. marathon or half marathon then please let us know. We will provide you with a great number with your name and the event date on it. Also, if it is your birthday, again let us know and we will get you a special number for your birthday!

Race Day Instructions & Number Pick Up
