Paddock Wood Half Marathon

About this event

The Paddock Wood Half Marathon takes runners through the scenic Kentish countryside around Whetsted, offering a rolling road course that tests fitness without venturing into trail territory. Set in early March, the event captures that transitional moment between winter and spring, when the orchards and hop gardens of the Weald of Kent begin to show signs of life. The course winds through quiet country lanes, giving runners a taste of rural England away from urban bustle. While the undulating terrain demands some solid preparation, it rewards with views across working farmland and picturesque villages that make Kent the 'Garden of England'.
