Route information

Race a scenic, road-closed Half Marathon through the heart of Rugby. Starting on Hart Field, the route explores town-centre streets and clear country roads with gentle undulations that suit steady pacing and strong finishes. Spectators will find plenty of vantage points, creating a lively atmosphere from the first kilometre to the final sprint.
You will pass through sections of the disused Great Central Railway, now a linear nature reserve and recognised wildlife hotspot, before returning to town for a memorable finish. Expect smooth organisation, supportive marshals, and accurate timing for a confident race day.

  • Unique themed medal
