Running Out of Time Relay 2024
In 2024, by popular demand, Running Out of Time Relay is back! Run, walk, cycle, kayak, climb, wheel, swim and surf the baton across Britain for 29 days to supercharge awareness, celebrate great climate work, and inspire action - all via a route within easy reach of 20 million people!
The Relay is the country’s only sporting event for climate and this year’s is the biggest yet. Its route comprises 210 stages and visits over 80 different climate and nature projects, sporting organisations and venues, as well as schools, events and iconic locations, combining the love of sport with a huge celebration of public campaigning and action for climate and nature.
The Relay will be collaborating with a wide range of partners to raise awareness of and inspire action on climate and nature issues. The message in the relay baton emphasises that we are united in our call for politicians of all parties to cut emissions; restore nature; and help those most affected by climate change.
The Relay ends at Parliament on 4 July - general election day.
