Magna Carta Spring 10km, Half Marathon & Marathon

About this event

The Magna Carta Spring races take runners through the historic Thames Valley around Runnymede, where King John sealed the famous charter in 1215. The courses follow scenic riverside paths and quiet roads near Windsor, offering a peaceful escape from urban running. Runners can choose from 10km, half marathon, or full marathon distances, all starting from Hythe End. The flat, fast routes make it ideal for those chasing personal bests, while the Thames-side setting adds a touch of English countryside charm. With spring wildflowers lining the towpath and swans gliding past, it's road running at its most picturesque. The event typically attracts a mix of club runners and marathon trainees looking for a well-organized race in beautiful surroundings.
