Remembrance Day Marathon & Half Marathon
Held on 8 November 2026, this is the 10th edition of the Remembrance Day Marathon & Half Marathon at Xcel SPORTS HUB Stadium, Waterside Drive, Walton on Thames, Surrey KT12 2JG.
Distances:
- Full marathon via four out and back laps
- Half marathon via two out and back laps
The course is off road on a riverside towpath. The overall route has no elevation gain or loss, making it flat throughout.
The event is built around a race freeze at 11.00 when all runners pause for a two minute silence; racing resumes at 11.02 after three horn blasts. The entry process asks participants to choose either the marathon or the half marathon.
Entry fees are the same for both distances: £37.95 for affiliated runners and £39.95 for unaffiliated runners. All participants, attended and virtual, receive a physical medal or memento. Additional items are provided for the first 100 entries. Places are strictly limited and the event has sold out in previous years.
Please note distance restrictions apply to participants ages 20 or under in line with UK Athletics rules. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
