This section is an attempt at providing information about upcoming races, most of which are held relatively local to Buxton. The compilation will not make any claims at being comprehensive. We provided links to a number of websites that carry information about races. These links can be accessed from the links section of Buxton & District AC's website. Other sources of information include running magazines such as FRA Fixtures Calendar, the FRA website, Runner's World, Running Fitness, and Athletics Weekly.
Please check start times, etc., with the organisers. I cannot guarantee that all information is 100% accurate.
