Our One Slam virtual event is back for the sixth time in 2025, once again encompassing Christmas week to give everyone a running head start into the new year.
The event takes place over a 10 week/ 70 day period: 25th December 2025 - 4th March 2026. Runners have a choice of distances that they can aim to complete within that time. The option to step up to the next level, or down if it becomes too much - is there at any time, just keep going! The event is for everybody, anywhere in the world. The targets are as follows:
50 Miles (5 miles per week)
100 Miles (10 miles per week)
200 Miles (20 miles per week/ The equivalent of the 50 Mile Grand Slam)
300 Miles (30 miles per week)
400 Miles (40 miles per week/ The equivalent of our 100 Mile Grand Slam)
500 Miles (50 miles per week)
600 Miles (60 miles per week/ The equivalent of our Double Slam)
1000 Miles (100 miles per week)
Part of the One Slam focus is helping our Centurion runners start the year on the front foot, but not just by encouraging consistent training, but also good opportunities to learn as well. As part of your One Slam entry you will have access to fortnightly webinars from our coaching team, on subjects such as training, nutrition, kit, racing and more. As well as open time for questions after each.
We will also be including a One Community Week - with awards - which as an entrant to One Slam you will be able to enter for free. That will take place 16th-22nd February 2026 and you can pick anything from 5km to 100 miles as your target for that specific week. See below for further details.

All you have to do is run whenever and wherever you like, then submit your distance to the database. You can do this automatically, by syncing your entry with strava or by just manually entering how far you ran, each time you do so. The system will then calculate your total distance and update both the results table and your position on our virtual map. It will add together your cumulative run distance only.
The results for each event will show in order of cumulative distance only. Remember this is not a race, the primary objective is to complete the challenge you set for yourself and to engage with your friends, family and the Centurion Community by sharing your journey.
Kids can enter and compete on bike or scooter if they wish.
You can also register for the canicross event - Simply select 'yes' during registration to 'running with a dog?' and you will appear in your age group but also the canicross category (medals are not provided for our canine friends but you can give them your one!).
We also want this to give you all the best possible start to your 2026 season, to learn about your training and improve your running in the process. To compliment this, we will be holding fornightly coaching webinars on Zoom - open to all entrants. These will be led by Robbie Britton our Head of Endurance at Centurion and some will also feature other members of our coaching team. The first one will take place on just prior to the event and will be open to everyone including non-Slam runners. After that, links to the webinars will only be shared with entrants to the event. Topics covered will be around central themes (TBC) but in the past these have included:
All of the sessions will be conducted via zoom. Links and meeting details will be shared in the pre-race mail outs and in the lead up to each one.
We will also be holding a One Community week from February 17th - February 23rd. This is optional, free with your One Slam entry and comes with its own set of awards that will be sent out to all finishers.
Centurion Running One Community is a virtual event which takes place over 7 days, starting at 0001 GMT on Monday 17th February 2026 and ending at 2359 on Sunday 23rd February. The event is for everybody, anywhere in the world, of any age.
You can select any of the target distances you wish from the below, and run that distance in one go, or cumulatively, over the course of the week.
You may submit results in any format via the results page which will appear in the lead up to the race. Enter the time and day on which you started your first run, and then the finish time of your final run. If you do the distance in one go, then the start and finish time of that one run. The system will then calculate your overall time.
The results will show in order of cumulative time, and by category. Categories include gender and age groups. However the primary objective is to complete the challenge you set for yourself and to engage with your friends, family and the Centurion Community by sharing your journey along the way. Age Categories are available all the way from Under 5's to Vet 90 (aside from the 100 mile where categories will be senior and up only
