If you’re a passionate runner looking to compete across some of Cornwall’s most scenic and well-organised road races, the Cornwall Grand Prix (Cornish GP) is the series for you. This competitive road running series is a favourite for club and non-club runners alike.​

What is the Cornwall Grand Prix?

  • Open to all abilities – You don’t need to be an elite athlete to join.​
  • Age-category prizes – Rewards for all age groups.​
  • Team points – Clubs compete in both male and female divisions.​
