Two Castles Run
The Two Castles Run began in 1983 as a fun run between Warwick Castle and Kenilworth Castle. Since then it has grown into an English Athletics licensed run that attracted 3,000 entrants in 2010. The field was increased to 4,000 places from 2011. In 2010 and 2011 it had the status of the Warwickshire Amateur Athletic Association 10 Kilometre Championship. In 2012 all 4,000 places were sold with 25 hours of the event opening. The race is organised by Kenilworth Rotary Club in conjunction with the Leamington Cycling and Athletic Club and is held each June.
