Isle of Wight Marathon

The Isle of Wight Marathon, established in 1957, is one of the longest-running marathons in the UK and globally. The 2025 event will commemorate the 50th women's marathon and the 69th men's marathon. The race features a scenic single-lap course through the island's quieter roads, with water stations at regular intervals.

Participants must be at least 18 years old, and the event has a limit of 400 entries. Awards are given to the top finishers in various categories, and all finishers receive medals.
