This new road race covers a less usual distance of four miles and forms part of the 2025 Gloucestershire AAA Road Race Series.

It was a beautiful sunny evening, perfect running conditions with a slight breeze. This year the Peaks Race returned to an evening event with a start time of 7pm. 70 runners entered the event with 59 running including 27 Dursley Running Club members.
Well done to everyone who took part, we hope everyone enjoyed the race, enjoyed the stunning views and the happy marshals. We look forward to seeing you all again next year.

Last held in 2019, Dursley Running Club’s infamous Peaks Race is a challenging off road running event that includes some of Dursley’s most testing climbs – Cam Peak, Cam Long Down, Uley Bury, and Downham Hill.

The race is 10.31km long with 318m of climb, the equivalent of a category B Fell Race! If you like hilly races then this one is for you and it’s also a popular warm-up race for the upcoming Dursley Dozen in February!
