Leamington Spa Half Marathon
The Leamington Spa Half Marathon returns for a ninth year. The event uses a traffic free course that starts and finishes in the heart of Royal Leamington Spa beside the Royal Pump Room Gardens. The route heads north out of the town through scenic villages, farms and fields in the Warwickshire countryside before descending back into the town.
Distances
- Half marathon 13.1 miles
- 15k 15 kilometres
- Kids Mile free fun run with a finishers medal for children
The event village sits in the Pump Room Gardens close to the start and finish and includes a kids zone. The organiser provides chip timing, finishers medals and t-shirts for participants, post race snacks and race photography for purchase. The event lists a charity partner, Safeline, which supports people affected by sexual abuse and rape and will be involved with the kids event.
Participant feedback highlights consistent local marshal and crowd support and scenic, undulating country sections with a few notable hills. Reported organisational issues from past events include limited toilet provision at the start and occasional start delays; organisers have added water stations in hot conditions. The event also notes measures to reduce waste from race kit and finisher items. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
