The spirit of Run Jericho

In 2011, parents at St Barnabas Primary School started the first Run Jericho, to raise money for the school and foster links with the local community. 11 runs later, Run Jericho is still going strong!

The races loop around beautiful North Oxford, taking in the streets of Jericho, Worcester College grounds, Oxford canal, Port Meadow and Burgess Field. 

The school shares its main playground with residents after school hours, and money raised has helped improve these facilities so that the school as well as the local community can benefit from it!

Volunteer and help us make Run Jericho a success!

Run Jericho is a charity event, created and organised entirely by volunteers, and we always need willing helpers. Whether you can spare 30 minutes before the event to mark out the course, spend the morning as a marshal pointing runners in the right direction, or handing out water to tired runners when they return to St Barnabas … every little helps!
