Route information
This event was initially due to take place on the 18th July but was delayed due to the delayed easing of lockdown rules.
For one year only, this event traditionally over 8 Miles has become a Half Marathon! The decision was made to give an extra opportunity to all the runners that missed their Half Marathon races due to all the Covid-19 cancellations and postponements.
The flat, scenic race takes a multi-terrain route that will be enjoyed by all runners. It offers a PB opportunity and provides the perfect mix of a friendly village atmosphere and well organised race management.
Runners will enjoy a route on road, river path and woodland that takes them through the historic Royal Borough of Kingston upon Thames marketplace, the picturesque village of Thames Ditton, and a three mile stretch of the Barge Walk beside the Thames.
