If you’re interested in running the Twin Lakes for Willen Hospice, we have two options available:

  1. Free registration with a minimum fundraising ask of £100. Request a code from challenges@willen-hospice.org.uk. (8 places available)
  2. If you’re already raising funds for us for a forthcoming running event in 2023/2024, and the half marathon works well for your training plan then request a code from challenges@willen-hospice.org.uk for free registration.

About the event

The TWIN LAKES 20 is a stunning 10-mile or 20-mile race that will prepare you for your Spring half/marathon experience without having to run on your own. You can enjoy the incredibly scenic, superfast, and traffic-free course through the stunning Milton Keynes countryside. Lapping two beautiful lakes, following the picturesque River Ouzel and the Grand Union Canal, you’ll never be far from the water! The course is multi-terrain with about 80% on cycle paths with some gravel paths and the remainder on the canal towpath.

Fundraising

We kindly ask you to fundraise a minimum of £100 to support our vital work. Download our fundraising pack and sponsorship form to get you started.
