Leamington Spa Half Marathon
The Leamington Spa Half Marathon is organised by Raceways Events and takes place around Royal Leamington Spa with an event village in the Pump Room Gardens. The route is traffic free and heads north from the town through scenic villages, farms and fields in the Warwickshire countryside before returning to finish in the town centre.
Distances at the event include:
- Half Marathon (13.1 miles)
- 15 km
- Kids Mile (free Kids Fun Run; all children receive a medal)
Event services listed by the organiser include chip timing, finishers medals and t-shirts for runners, post-race snacks, race photography and an event village close to the finish. The event partners with the charity Safeline, which provides specialist support services for people affected by sexual abuse and rape; Safeline also hosts the Kids Mile.
Participant feedback in reviews notes an undulating course with notable local crowd support, water stations provided along the route, and well marshalled sections. Reports also mention logistical issues at times, such as limited toilets at the start, start-line delays, variable water-station signage and room for improvement in kids-race management. Entry options on offer include a free kids entry and paid adult entries (listed up to £42). Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
