One page, top to bottom
Every section works to inform the runner and get them entered.
- Hero with your event name
A full-width photo with your name, date and location laid over it. It carries straight through to every email you send, so your brand travels with the entry.
- Important information
The details runners hunt for - start time, sat nav postcode, entry deadline, surface - pinned in tidy boxes at the top instead of buried in a paragraph.
- All your entry options
Every distance, every price tier - affiliated, unaffiliated, early bird, junior - each with its own one-tap Enter. Anyone choosing the affiliated rate has their England Athletics number checked live at that moment, so the discount only reaches genuine members. Ballots and waiting lists slot in here too.
- About the event
Your description, plus the facts that build trust: capacity, licence body, and a link to last year’s results.
- What’s included
Chip timing, free photos, a goody bag, a medal - shown as clear icons so entrants see the value before they pay.
- Course map, drawn for you
Upload a GPX and the route, distance and total climb are drawn automatically. Add water-station pins along the line and a proper elevation profile - the detail runners ask about most.
- How to get there
An embedded map with a dropped pin, plus parking instructions and a what3words address for the exact start - no more “where do I go?” emails.
- Contact the organiser
A built-in form goes straight to your inbox. Runners reach you without your email ever being on show.

Questions organisers ask
What does it cost to claim my event?
Nothing. Claiming your event and building your event page are free and need nothing but an organiser account.
My event is not listed yet. Can I still use this?
Yes. Most UK races are already on Race Calendar, and if yours is you claim it. If it is not, add it in a couple of minutes and it gets the same full event page.
What if someone else claims my event?
Claims are checked before they go live, and an event can only have one owner. If a listing has already been claimed and you believe it is yours, use the contact form and we will sort it out.
Do I have to take entries through Race Calendar?
No. Your event page can send runners to whichever entry site you already use. Taking entries through Race Calendar is there if you want it.
Do I need a Stripe account?
Only if you take entries through Race Calendar itself. Claiming, building your page and linking another entry site all work without Stripe.
How long does it take?
Claiming takes a couple of minutes once you have an account. You can then add as much or as little detail as you like, and change it whenever you want.
Built by a runner
Race Calendar is built by Ryan McLeod, a former GB international and twice British Half Marathon Champion, who returned to the sport after nearly a decade away and ran 2:19 at London 2026. It exists because organisers deserve a listings and entry platform that is comprehensive, honest about fees and easy to use.
