The Kirkwall Half Marathon is a road running event in Kirkwall, Orkney. It starts and finishes at the Pickaquoy Centre and uses a looped course around the town and nearby roads.
The route is typically run over multiple laps of local roads, including sections through Kirkwall town and surrounding residential and coastal edge roads. It includes steady climbs and rolling sections rather than flat running.
Terrain is fully road based on tarmac surfaces. The course is undulating and non technical, with the challenge coming from repetition and gradual elevation changes.
The setting combines town centre streets with open Orkney scenery. It delivers a traditional island half marathon with a strong community feel and a steady, testing road profile.
