About BBC Club
BBC Club was founded in 1924 as a private members club. It has been a part of BBC Life for over 90 years. Today the Club is the heart of social unity within the BBC.
All BBC and BBC partners staff can enjoy a wealth of services ranging from working up a sweat to the pursuit of a life long interest; as a place to meet friends or to work up the next big idea. Members benefit from discounted rates in our Clubs and on our services as well as a plethora of additional online benefits and high street deals. We also have a private lottery, exclusive member only events, plus much much more!

39th Annual Regents Park Race


About
Please come and help us keep the legacy of the oldest run in the park going (started on 28th October 1984).
The Hub is only open until 19:00 in September so you will be able to get changed and use the loos if you need to upon arrival but you can’t use the lockers as The Hub will shut whilst we are running. There will be one person starting the run (and tracking times using a timing app) who belongings can be left with but avoid bringing anything too valuable, any valuables are left at your own risk.
We are not charging for the event as we are holding it more informally than we did before 2020. We will use running numbers and a timing app so please do send details in advance so the app can be set up. We need the following details:
Name (first & surname):
Gender: M/F
Vet category (40 and over)? Y/N
You can also enter on the day but please be outside The Hub before 18:15 if you do so we can collect details. Runners please collect numbers (safety pins provided) when you arrive. Plan on bringing your own water bottle – taps are available to fill bottles with water.
The course will be the usual one – there will be no signs or marshals but we are planning on marking the course out with some flour on the floor so people don’t get lost. Three laps is 10km but feel free to only do one or two laps (3.3km or 6.7km) if you would like – timings are only being taken for those running three laps though. Please be courteous to other users of the park as the paths will not be closed.
We are hoping to head to the pub (The Metropolitan Bar by Baker Street tube) for a post-run drink and all are welcome to join. You can find it on 7 Station Approach, Marylebone Road, London NW1 5LA.
Hope to see you there!
