Gather your team and take on the RunThrough Relays Media City on Thursday 30th September 2027. Starting and finishing in the Media City Piazza, this exciting relay event brings a team-focused twist to the popular Run Media City.

Runners will take on a 2.5km loop through Media City UK, heading over the Millennium Bridge, past the Imperial War Museum, and around the ITV and BBC television studios. With teammates cheering, handovers to chase, and a brilliant city backdrop, this is a fun and energetic way to race together.

Race Distance & Start Times

6:30 PM

Each kilometre is accurately marked with distance flags and our friendly marshals will guide and cheer you all the way to the finish. We cannot wait to welcome you to the RunThrough Relays Media City Powered by Bank Of America.

With RunThrough you can expect a friendly team of marshals to help guide you round the course and cheer you on to the finish, a lively and well-serviced event village with plenty of food and drink options including free goodies from our partners at the finish line after your hard effort.

You can now grab your RunThrough Relays Media City Powered by Bank Of America event t-shirt for more than 30% off when you buy it as part of your entry on checkout! With the event logo printed on the chest, it’s the perfect keepsake to celebrate your race and wear your achievement with pride!

We can do this with our partner RT Kit as part of a strategic decision to raise awareness about the quality of the product whilst reducing the overall cost of events for those who would prefer not to have a t-shirt included.

Come and enjoy the day with us. Once you enter you will receive a confirmation email. More information will be sent closer to the event.

We can’t wait to see you on the start line!
