Richmond Park Half Marathon - March 2027
The Richmond Park event offers two distances that run within Richmond Park from the Sheen Gate area. The half marathon is run as four laps through woodland and rolling hills, with an elevation gain of about 187 m. The route uses trail paths, pavement and grass and passes through areas where the park’s deer can often be seen.
Included with entry are a unique themed medal, free race photos, chip-timed results, post-race goodies and a bag drop. The event village is located next to Sheen Gate and provides food, drink and finish-line refreshments. Supportive marshals are positioned throughout the course and the route is marked with trail flags and A5 arrows.
