Richmond Park Half Marathon and Marathon

The event is a trail run held entirely within Richmond Park, organised by 1 Mile 2 Go Events and based at the Sheen Gate car park area. Two distance options are offered:

  • Half Marathon (13.1 miles)
  • Marathon

The route leaves Sheen Gate and passes Richmond Gate before returning to Sheen Gate, then continues through the centre of the park toward the White House. The course offers views of the park lakes and opportunities to see wildlife.

Runners follow the Tamsin Trail from Robin Hood Gate, climb Broomfield Hill where there is a drinks station, and continue toward Kingston Gate. The route goes through wooded sections to Ham Gate, which hosts a drinks and feed station. Participants proceed to Petersham Gate for park views, then return to Ham Gate and run along the main track beside Queens Road with a safe crossing back toward the park's central private road. That central section is described as flat and faster, leading back past the White House and returning to Sheen Gate for the half marathon finish.

Entry fees are listed for each distance, with the half marathon and marathon priced separately. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
