About the event

Join us at the Kew Gardens Half Marathon on the 30th March 2025.

This race has one of the most beautiful starts of any running race in Europe. The route takes off on closed roads inside Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, before venturing down the Richmond towpath and riverside to Ham House before turning to finish back at Kew Gardens next to the River Thames.

If you are looking for a stand alone race in Spring 2025 or for a tune-up before a spring marathon, Kew the Run offers a flat and fast course. It's a perfect chance to lock in to some marathon paced miles alongside pace makers to help you judge your pace.

Take in the most biodiverse place on Earth at the wonderful Kew Gardens in this exciting fast and flat event and run for a world free from meningitis.
