The Norfolk Marathon & Half Marathon
The Norfolk Marathon and Half Marathon take place on 19 April 2026 in Cromer and are organised by EPIC Norfolk. The event offers two road race distances that start and finish at the same location.
- Full Marathon : 26.2 miles
- Half Marathon
All entries include chip timing and a bespoke race medal. Official race T-shirts are available as an add-on for £15 in unisex sizes XS to XXXL, with provided width and length measurements. Race numbers can be posted for £1.20 extra; posting is free for charity entries.
Minimum ages are 18 for the full marathon and 17 for the half marathon. Cut-off times are 6 hours for the full marathon and 4 hours for the half marathon. The event is run under UK Athletics rules and holds separate licence numbers for each distance.
Charity entries are available through listed charity partners. Charity entrants who raise at least £250 via an official fundraising page may receive a refund of the entry fee; failure to meet the minimum may lead to entry removal. Any profits from the race will be reinvested into local sport and physical activity, including work supporting people living with dementia.
Full marathon entrants may purchase a 16-week training plan created by England Athletics running coaches for £17.50, which includes pacing guides and a four-run weekly schedule. If the race is postponed, entries will be moved to the new date or offers to transfer or run virtually may be made; if cancelled, entries will be deferred to next year or a refund can be requested before a stated deadline. Entries are non-refundable and the transfer window is currently closed. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
