Intro: This is a quick summary of Glastonbury – 200 people Running at the Festival! from RUN SDJ. It’s a great watch — we’re breaking it down so you can try the workout today. Be sure to check out the full video for all the details.

Key Points:

The run is a ~6 km (about 3.7 mi) circuit through Glastonbury’s festival fields, starting and finishing in the Greenpeace field.
Participants begin with a group warm‑up before heading into the course, which includes a mix of flat sections, a modest hill, and plenty of crowd cheer.
The whole run took about 48 minutes, meaning a comfortable 8‑9 min / km (≈13‑14 min / mi) pace—perfect for recreational runners.
The atmosphere is upbeat: non‑runners cheer you on, and the route passes landmarks like the theater, cabaret field, and the Stone Circle.

Workout Example:

Warm‑up (5 min) – light jog or brisk walk with the group, stay loose on the hill.
Run 6 km (≈48 min) – keep a steady, conversational effort (≈8‑9 min / km). Adjust effort on the hill; stay relaxed on downhills.
Cool‑down (2‑3 min) – easy jog/walk back to the finish, soak in the festival vibes.

Practical Tips:

Know the terrain – watch for the short hill near the middle and stay mindful of footing.
Use the crowd – let the cheers boost your morale and maintain a positive mindset.
Hydrate – grab water at any of the festival stations before or after the run.
Enjoy the scenery – treat the run as a sightseeing adventure, not just a workout.

Closing Note: Give the Glastonbury‑style run a go, and feel free to tailor the distance or pace in the Pacing app to match your own goals. Have fun and keep running!
