HPX: The Hunner Percent Race 2026 

Bigger. Better. Back for More.

SATURDAY 29TH AND SUNDAY 30TH AUGUST!

After a hugely successful debut in 2025, HPX returns for its second year — louder, faster, and even more competitive. This time, alongside our same-sex male and female pairs, we’re adding a brand-new Competitive Mixed Pairs (Male/Female) division, giving even more athletes the chance to throw down.

Lock in the early bird price of £120 by signing up before Midnight on Friday 7th November (this Friday evening), this saves you from paying the general sale price of £150 when tickets open to the public.

More Than Just a Race

HPX isn’t only about fitness — it’s about showing up for something bigger. Every penny raised goes directly to Harbour, a local addiction charity that supports individuals and families affected by substance abuse. Their work changes lives, and we’re proud to stand behind it.

The Legacy

This event is held in honour of John Gilardi (Gio) — a friend, training partner, and the kind of person who gave everything, every time. The race is built the way he lived: Hunner Percent. The John Gilardi Legacy ensures Harbour can continue providing hope, structure, and recovery support where it’s needed most.

Why Hunner Percent?

Because that’s what John gave. Because that’s what this race demands. Win or lose, you give everything — for your partner, for the cause, and for the legacy.
