The Richmond Riverside Summer 10k and Half Marathon
The Richmond Riverside Summer 10k and Half Marathon is an outdoor running event located in Richmond, United Kingdom. The course is set along the River Thames, providing scenic views as it passes through Richmond and Twickenham. The event follows a fast and flat route that takes participants from Ham Street towards Kingston.
Runners head along the riverside towpath towards Kingston before returning nearly to Richmond. The course then leads back toward Ham House to finish by the riverside. Because the race takes place on public land and towpaths, participants share the space with the local community.
The event offers two distinct distances:
- 10 km
- Half Marathon (13.1 miles)
The organizer provides several race day services, including a bag drop facility and chip-timed results. The course is marshalled and includes multiple water and aid stations to provide refreshments for participants. Upon completion, runners receive a finisher's medal.
The event site is located at Ham Street. For those arriving by public transport, Richmond Station is the nearest rail link, situated approximately a 20 to 30 minute walk from the start area at Ham House. Limited parking is available near the riverside and along Ham Street. Participants collect their race packs, which include the timing chip and race number, at the registration area on the day of the event.
