RunThrough Race returns starts and finishes at Eel Brook Common
The start of a previous Fulham 10K
November 9, 2026
Runners will take to the streets of Fulham on Sunday 15 November when the Fulham 10K Featuring Top Flight returns, bringing participants of all abilities together for one of west London's most popular road races. Over 1,000 runners are expected to compete.
The event, organised by RunThrough, will start and finish at Eel Brook Common, with competitors following a closed-road route through Fulham and Parsons Green. The course will pass several local landmarks, including Stamford Bridge, home of Chelsea FC, before returning to the finish area at the common.
The race begins at 9am, with organisers scheduling a warm-up session in the event village 30 minutes before the start. Participants will be lined up in pace groups from 8.40am to ensure a smooth and safe start.
Based at Eel Brook Common, the event village will provide facilities including refreshments, portable toilets, spectator access and an informal bag drop service. Parsons Green and Fulham Broadway stations are the nearest Underground stations for runners and supporters travelling to the event. Organisers have advised competitors to use public transport where possible as there is no parking available at the venue.
During the race, runners will have access to a water station and electrolyte drinks at the halfway point, with water and snacks available at the finish line. A 90-minute course cut-off will be in place because of road closures.
The route of this year's Fulham 10K
This year's race also forms part of the Top Flight by RunThrough series, a nationwide competition designed to support elite-level athletics through high-quality racing opportunities and prize incentives. The series features a total prize pot of £60,000, with athletes earning points based on finishing positions across selected events.
Alongside the competitive element, the event includes a community focus. The Royal Marsden Cancer Charity has been announced as the race's charity partner, while local businesses are participating in the "Medal Madness" scheme, offering discounts and promotions to finishers who present their race medals after the event. Participating businesses include Pulse Club Fulham, Honesty Fulham Road and BAE-kery Fulham.
Finishers will receive a commemorative medal and will be able to view race results and photographs online following the event.
