About the race
The Darlington Half Marathon on 6 December 2026 is a fully road-closed half marathon organised by RunThrough, with proceeds supporting Darlington Mind. The route is described as flat and measures 13.1 miles, beginning in the town centre, heading west onto quiet rural roads in County Durham, then returning for a High Street finish in Darlington.
Each kilometre is marked with distance flags and marshals are positioned along the course to guide and encourage participants. Race services included with entry are a unique themed medal, free race photos, chip-timed results and post race goodies. An event village will offer food and drink options and additional free items from partners at the finish area.
The organiser highlights sustainability as an area of focus and offers an event t shirt at a discount when purchased with entry through partner RT Kit. Entry periods listed in the event information include Super Early Bird ending 26 April 2026, Early Bird ending 7 June 2026 and Standard entry ending 8 November 2026.
