Doncaster AC present Doncaster’s classic race of the year on Wednesday 13 July 2022, a fast three lap course around the town centre for 5K runners and one lap for fun runners. Large home crowds line the route which is well marshaled with authorised road closures and police support.

This year will mark the 24th year for this event which started in 1994. The races start at 7pm with the Johnymac Family 1 mile Fun Run which has been named in memory of one of our most popular and valued club members John McHale who passed away prematurely in 2010 aged just 36.

To ease congestion on the course the race is split into an Open race and a Vets race. Vets are classed as over the age of 40 for men and 35 for women

The second race of the night is the competitive Vets race starting at 7:30pm and the final race will be the Open race starting at 8pm.

This event traditionally attracts top runners from around the region, why not come and join us in what is sure to be great entertainment for all the family.

Car Parking We advise you use Doncaster Civic Quarter Car Park, off College Road (DN1 3GH), it is well signed and is located around 5 minutes from the start. There are over 850 spaces, which should be ample, but additional parking is available at the Markets Short Stay Car Park off Church Way (DN1 1QZ), which is slightly further from the start but next to the finish
