About us
Welcome to ACE Races!
We’re a small, family-run business nestled in the heart of Yorkshire, born out of a passion for running and a desire to bring people together—even when apart.
Our Story
ACE Races began during the 2020 lockdown as a way for our family to stay active and connected. As avid runners - including our energetic 5-year-old who loves mini races—we found joy in setting challenges and celebrating milestones. What started as a personal endeavor quickly grew into a community of like-minded individuals seeking motivation, fun, and a sense of achievement.
What We Do
At ACE Races, we design and host virtual races and challenges that you can complete anytime, anywhere. Whether you’re walking, running, cycling, swimming, or using gym equipment, our events are tailored to fit your lifestyle and fitness level. Each challenge comes with a bespoke medal—designed in-house and crafted with care—to commemorate your accomplishment.
We also offer a range of vibrant, high-quality running t-shirts and headbands to keep you looking and feeling great on your fitness journey.
Our Mission
Our goal is to make fitness accessible and enjoyable for everyone, regardless of age or ability. We believe that staying active should be fun and rewarding, which is why we create themed challenges inspired by real-world routes and imaginative adventures.
We’re also committed to giving back. Through select virtual races, we raise funds for various charities, and with every order placed on our website, we plant a tree in partnership with Ecologi to help reduce our carbon footprint.
Join Our Community
We’re proud to have built a global community of participants who share our passion for fitness and fun. From our home in Yorkshire to yours, we invite you to explore our challenges, don our funky gear, and become part of the ACE Races family.
