Reading Half Marathon routes
Starting on Longwater Avenue runners will be taken east towards the University of Reading before heading to the halfway point near to Reading Train Station.
Continuing along closed roads, runners will be taken over undulating roads and out past Prospect Park before heading back towards the epic stadium finish waiting for them.
The last 3 miles might be mentally tough, but thinking of the cheering spectators and photo finish waiting will push runners that last stretch to Madejski Stadium.

Did the Half Marathon in 2019
Epic! Helped since I did get a PB, but I would definitely do this again! This was my 2nd year doing this half and thoroughly enjoyed it. The support was amazing and organisation was superb! My only suggestion would be to encourage more spectators along the lonely A33!Did the Half Marathon in 2019
Great route, although hillier than expected. Great atmosphere and support all the way round. 1 downside had to stand for a little to long in starting pen, which made it difficult to stay warmDid the Half Marathon in 2010
OK for a first time HM. Course was well laid out, with good regular drink/loo stops. The course does take you through the town, and there are a lot of spectators. Not the prettiest of runs in parts. Supposedly a top pick for those chasing a big PB, and catching it!Did the Half Marathon in 2015
The course is relatively flat for a HM, lots of runners so it always feels busy. Good PB course and a great finish running into the stadium - I have done it multiple times!
