Wiltshire Road Race League (WRRL) 2026 Fixtures
Post from Philip Daniels (7th Feb 2026)
I’m delighted to take over as Wiltshire Road Secretary.
My first challenge is to get a Road League season together as quickly as possible, so here it is:
| Race Number | Date | Race Name | Organizers |
|---|---|---|---|
| Race 1 | 26th April | Corsham 10k | Corsham RC – ENTER HERE |
| Race 2 | 12th May, 9th June, 14th July, 11th Aug | Westbury 5k Series* | AVR – ENTER HERE |
| Race 3 | 14th June – TBC | Broad Town 5 | RWBH – |
| Race 4++ | 19th July & 16th August | Lightening (3 & 4) Bolt 10k* | i-Compete – July ENTER HERE, Aug ENTER HERE |
| Race 5 | 16th June, 21st July, 18th Aug | Heddington 5k Series* | Calne RC |
| Race 6++ | 6th September | Compton Bassett 5 mile | Calne RC |
| Race 7++ | 13th September | Chippenham Half | Chippenham Harriers – ENTER HERE |
| Race 8 | 25th October | Calne Clock Change 10k |
*your best time will count for the league result from which team points will be decided.
++ denotes a County Championship race (for the 10k it will be the 16th Aug event)
Where an event is listed as a county championship race, this means the event will be the county championship race for the distance in 2026. The first 3 male and female Wiltshire eligible athletes across the line in those chosen events will be crowned county gold (champion) / silver / bronze for the distance. Veteran categories will be included on a gold medal basis only.
This season finishes at the Clock Change in October. Later finish than usual, sorry, but I put it in to avoid having three race weekends on a trot again.
Going forward, I will do my best to ensure every Club and event organisers have at least one of their races selected in a 2 year period. Also, I would like to mention, May is the quietest of months for local races, so there a gap to be had if anyone planning an event in the future.
A note for all competitors: Please try to commit to races early (6 weeks before race day) to help race organisers provision for medical, chip timing, medals, facilities (such as toilet rental), refreshments and drink stations. We wish to avoid organisers being close to cancelling races due to lack of entries 6 weeks before race day.
Best of luck to all those competing next year! I’ll look forward to seeing you all on the start line
