The Lowdown

The CZ Tilburg Ten Miles is Midden-Brabant's biggest running festival, held every September in Tilburg, North Brabant, Netherlands since 1988. The signature event is a fast, flat 16.1 km (10-mile) road race through the city center, run alongside a 10K, a 5K, kids' runs, a business run, and a walking tour, all starting on the Spoorlaan and finishing at the Stadsforum. In 2005 Haile Gebrselassie set the men's world record for the 10-mile road distance here, 44:24, a mark that still stands. The event partners with KWF Kankerbestrijding (the Dutch Cancer Society) through its Run Against Cancer program, letting entrants fundraise toward a free bib. The 2026 edition runs Saturday 26 and Sunday 27 September, with the main Ten Miles race on Sunday morning; the Ten Miles distance itself is already sold out, though the 10K, 5K, and the other events remain open for registration.
