Our 
Story

We are Unsanctioned Athletics, a race series launched in Nottingham.

​

Our primary aim is to provide a platform for the running community to come together to race, spectate and celebrate racing. 

 

Our races are different to your average race. There's no route, no rules. By design, the races are fast and frenetic.
