ABP Newport Marathon
The ABP Newport Marathon is a city-centre marathon in Newport that launched in 2018. It is described as one of the flattest marathon courses in the UK and is presented as a fast route where a high proportion of finishers record personal bests.
The route passes local landmarks and landscapes, including the Transporter Bridge and the Gwent Levels, an area noted for coastal wildlife and nearby medieval villages. Races start and finish on the riverside in the heart of the regenerated city centre, giving the event a strong urban setting.
The marathon takes place alongside shorter supporting races on the same day, creating a festival of running with options for different distances.
