Kingston Half Marathon

About this event

This road half marathon starts in Kingston's Ancient Market Place and weaves through one of London's most historically rich boroughs. The route crosses Kingston Bridge before following the Thames on the peaceful Barge Walk, offering riverside views that feel surprisingly rural despite being in Greater London. Runners pass the grand Hampton Court Palace and wind through Thames Ditton's quiet streets, where centuries-old buildings tell stories of the area's royal connections. The course returns to the Market Place, completing a loop that blends architectural heritage with the calm beauty of the Thames Path. It's a lovely choice for those who enjoy running with a side of history.
