Record-Breaking Year for the Royal Sutton Fun Run

April 20th, 2026

We’re delighted to announce that registration for the 2026 Royal Sutton Fun Run has now officially closed – and what an incredible response it has been!

Thanks to the amazing support from our community, this year’s event has reached record-breaking entry numbers! From seasoned runners to first-time participants, thousands of you have signed up to walk, jog, or run the iconic 8.5-mile route through Sutton Coldfield.

The enthusiasm and energy shown by our participants each year is what makes this event so special, and 2026 is set to be our most memorable yet.

We’d like to say a huge thank you to everyone who has registered, as well as to our sponsors, partners, and volunteers who help make the event possible. Your support continues to drive the success of the Royal Sutton Fun Run and the many charities and voluntary organisations it benefits.

Everyone is welcome – whether you’re taking part or not, come along, cheer on the runners, and soak up the fantastic atmosphere!

We’ll be sharing more updates in the lead-up to race day, so keep an eye on our website and social channels.

We can’t wait to see you all on Sunday 31st May 2026!
