It was first run in 1982 and since then has become a popular
spring event in the village calendar.

The Race is unusual. The hilly route follows the 13.875 miles
of road that circles Coniston water and there are stunning views of the surrounding mountains.

The Coniston 14 is probably the most
beautiful road race in Britain. Each year it
attracts some 1600 runners and has a
reputation for being one of the best
organised small races in the country.

The Race is organised by an
enthusiastic committee of volunteers
from Coniston village.

Each year over £7,000 is raised from the Race for charities and organisations in the local community. As a tribute to John Kirkbride, one of the founders of the Race, who died of cancer in 2006 the Coniston 14 Committee will each year make a major donation to St. Mary’s Hospice, Ulverston.
