Hi ​@Adeebben, this is a global website - with people from all over the world 😃 so it might help if you specify where you live! I could definitely recommend you some races local to me (there's an amazing flat certified 5k/10k that I run regularly) but well, it's in Central Europe… 🙂

@Adeebben Yep of course, at 15 you can enter ANY 10k on this site https://www.runthrough.co.uk/events-timeline  this was the first one I thought of for loads of London events. In general for the UK 15 is good for 10k, if you want to do any before your birthday then the only way is through a running club.  There are a LOT of race options in London

If you are looking to get serious then these events will start to qualify you for rankings and I’d recommend joining a club to get a discount on race entry along with an official athlete ID  https://www.englandathletics.org/runevents/
