Gosport Half Marathon
The Gosport Half Marathon is an annual 13.1-mile road race organised by Gosport Road Runners in Gosport, Hampshire. The course is a two-lap route with a long stretch along the Lee-on-the-Solent promenade offering coastal views toward the Isle of Wight. The route is described as flat and fast and includes several sections that are not wholly closed to traffic.
Race services include five water stations, a team of more than 200 marshals and volunteers, marshal support from local youth groups, a race village at King’s Academy Bay House Sports Centre (Browndown Road, PO12 2QX) and supervised bag storage. Facilities at Race HQ include changing rooms, toilets, refreshments, a retail sports stall and sports massage. Every finisher receives a medal and a goody bag; individual awards are presented at the Sports Centre and team prizes issued after results verification.
The event includes a Young Person’s Race held before the main event and a children’s fun run. Entrants must be 17 or over on race day. The race is a Hampshire Road Race League event held under English Athletics rules and UK Anti-Doping rules apply. The course is not suitable for wheelchair athletes. The organisers operate a no-refund, no-deferral policy and allow number transfers under specific conditions. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
