This half marathon is flat, but so picturesque. Starting and finishing inside the historic Hampton Court Palace, runners traverse a route that showcases the majesty of this royal residence as well as the surrounding scenery. Not only is this your chance to get active to help cure paralysis, but it will also give you entry to one of the UK’s most beautiful historical attractions. With half the distance, double the majesty and all the fun, you don’t want to miss out on the opportunity to be part of this unforgettable experience – join us and make a difference!
