The Southampton Airport and Hampshire and Isle of Wight Air Ambulance Runway Run is back.

On Sunday 20 July, join us for a 5K with a difference. Catch the sunrise during the warm-up before hitting the smooth, straight tarmac for a 5:30 am start time — perfect for those aiming to achieve a new personal best.

Be sure to get your tickets today, as the 1,000 available spots are expected to sell out quickly. Each finisher will receive a bespoke Runway Run medal.

Gavin Williams, Managing Director of Southampton Airport, said:

“We are delighted to be bringing back the Runway Run in aid of the air ambulance.

“Our airport is proudly supporting the relocation to the community it serves, and the life-saving service the charity provides impacts so many people in the region.

“We know from previous Runway Runs how popular this event is, so I urge anyone interested to get their ticket early and help raise as much funds as possible for an amazing cause.”

Keith Wilson, Hampshire and Isle of Wight Air Ambulance Director of Income and Engagement, said:

“This gem of an event is always immensely popular – whether you’re an experienced runner, thirsty for adventure, or you just love an early start.

“It’s a joy to be returning to Southampton Airport Runway, the future home of our service. I urge everyone to get their tickets as soon as possible – it’s going to be mighty popular.”

The Southampton Airport Runway Run raised more than £60,000 back in 2017-2019 and is returning this year to mark the start of the two organisations becoming partners and neighbours, as we prepare to move into our new headquarters on George Curl Way.

Avoid disappointment and get your tickets today.
