Kempton Park Racecourse, Staines Road East, Sunbury-on-Thames TW16 5AQ, United Kingdom
Kingston and Kempton Park Pretty Muddy 5k 2026 is a Race for Life charity event organised by Cancer Research UK that combines a 5 km run/walk with muddy obstacles at Kempton Park Racecourse. The event is family-friendly and staged in timed waves, with starts from 12:30 and new waves every 15 minutes to manage numbers and safety. Participants of 13 years and over can take part, and those who prefer may walk or skip obstacles with marshal assistance. The course uses a mix of grass, hardstanding and some tarmac sections within the racecourse bowl.
The event experience emphasises fundraising and community atmosphere while raising money for life-saving cancer research, with warm-ups and on-site spectator activities provided. Practical details such as free event parking at Kempton Park, nearby train and bus links, and on-site refreshments are included on the organiser page. Accessibility information is provided by the organiser; the page notes the event is not suitable for wheelchair users but offers several inclusion measures and guidance for attendees with specific needs. Entrants are asked to respect event safety guidance and the minimum age requirement stated by the organiser.
