The Bupa Great Capital Run was a 10-kilometre (6 mi) road race and fun run through the paths of Hyde Park, London (and later Regent's Park) which was established in 2007. It was one of the Great Run race series.
The event started in 2007 as a 10k race in Hyde Park, sponsored by Bupa. [1] This format continued in 2008 with a new event for 8-to-14-year-olds, a 2.5-kilometre (1.6 mi) run allowing children to run in fancy dress.
In 2009, the main race was reduced to 5k and moved to Regent's Park.[ citation needed] This was the final Great Capital Run.
