Shakespeare Half Marathon

Date / Time

Length

13.05 miles (21.0 km)

Description

Shakespeare Marathon & Half Marathon on Sunday 26th April 2026

Join us for this well established road closed Marathon and Half Marathon around Stratford-upon-avon. This flat and fast route follows 1 lap for the half marathon and 2 laps for the marathon. The majority of the route follows closed roads, with the remainder on the Stratford Greenway footpath, a hard compact footpath, ideal for PB racing!

The route heads from the town centre, past the racecourse, into Luddington & Welford-on-Avon before joining the Stratford Greenway back into Stratford-upon-Avon. The half marathon will head into the Recreation Ground from there. The marathon will complete a 2nd, extended loop, which also heads through Long Marston, before returning to the Recreation Ground for the finish.
