Why List Your Event on JoinTheRun?
JoinTheRun is a free, community-first platform built to connect runners with local events, clubs, and races. By adding your event, you’ll reach an engaged audience of runners who are actively looking for their next challenge.
Please note: JoinTheRun does not take bookings or payments. We simply connect runners with organisers.
- Free to submit — no cost to list your event.
- Simple process — just complete our form, and we’ll review & publish within 48 hours.
- Reach more runners — your event appears in our interactive calendar and search.
- Support the community — help make running more accessible and inclusive.
How JoinTheRun Works
Three simple steps to sharing your next running event.
Submit your event details
Fill out our online form with your event details, whether it’s a race, a weekly club run, or a one-off social session. The more info you provide, the easier it is for runners to find and join.
We review & approve
Our team checks every submission to make sure details are accurate and complete. This usually takes less than 48 hours. We don’t take bookings or payments — we simply connect runners with organisers.
Your event goes live
Once approved, your event will appear on our interactive calendar and search map for runners to discover. People can filter by location, date, and type of run, making it easy for the right runners to find you.
Tip for organisers: Adding recurring events (like weekly club runs) means runners know where and when to find you on a regular basis.

Advertising & Promotion Opportunities
Want your event or brand to stand out? While all organisers can list events for free, we also offer affordable promotional options designed to give you extra visibility and help you reach more runners. Whether you’re a race director, a local run club, or a business connected to the running community, these packages give you the boost you need.
Featured Event Listings
Put your race front and centre. Featured Listings make sure your event doesn’t get lost in the crowd by standing out in search results and the event calendar.
What you get:
- Your event highlighted and pinned at the top of relevant searches
- Priority visibility in our event calendar
- A one-off social media mention on JoinTheRun’s channels
Ideal for organisers who want maximum exposure for a single race or recurring run.
Featured Event Listings
Promote your race, club, or business with banner advertising placed across high-traffic areas of JoinTheRun. This is a great way to increase awareness and connect directly with our community of runners.
Placement options:
- Homepage Banner
- Calendar Page Banner (most visited)
- Blog Sidebar Banner
Why banners work:
- High visibility on key pages
- Reach a dedicated audience of runners and organisers
- Perfect for promoting events, clubs, shops, physiotherapists, nutrition brands, or coaching services
Co-Branded Merchandise
Looking for a way to make your event even more memorable? We offer co-branded merchandise in partnership with JoinTheRun. From finisher t-shirts and hoodies to tote bags, water bottles, and more, we can help design and produce high-quality items that showcase your event alongside the JoinTheRun brand.
Why Co-Branded Merch Works
- Added value for participants – medals are great, but practical merchandise keeps your event remembered long after race day.
- Increased visibility – runners love showing off their kit, giving your event extra exposure online.
- Flexible options – offer as part of entry, or sell as an add-on to boost revenue.
- Shared identity – connect your event with the JoinTheRun community while keeping your unique branding front and centre.
