Whether you’re a running newbie or a seasoned pro, come and Beat Your Best with us at the fourth and final event of the 2018 adidas City Runs series.

General Entries & Charity places are now SOLD OUT. Please CLICK HERE and join our waiting list for our 2019 events Due to the scale and numbers participating in the Fulham 10K, it will be necessary to implement road closures across the full 10K route to facilitate the safe passage of the participants. The route and road closures have been carefully considered and selected through a partnership of all local authorities, emergency services and Transport for London to minimise the inconveniences of the necessary road closures. Emergency Services will be operating as usual and pedestrian access will be unaffected across the event route, but there will be no vehicle or bicycle access on the roads closed for the event. Important Information for affect Residents Living or working in LBH&F? You maybe directly on the event route, or adjacent to it, and we wish to directly notify you of the affected roads and their closure times (click here to see map) to assist in your planning for the day. Please be aware that the road closures could impact delivery arrangements or vistor arrivals that day and we would ask you to plan ahead around these times, and contact us directly if you have any key concerns which we will endeavour to address where possible. If you have any other specific questions or require more information with regards to the event, please contact the Fulham 10K office directly at 0207 227 0972 (Mon-Fri 09.30 – 17.00), email community@adidascityruns.com or visit the website on www.adidascityruns.com/fulham.
