The Riverside Marathon & Half Marathon is organised by Phoenix Running in Walton-on-Thames, Surrey. Starting from the Xcel Sports Hub, this low key running event follows the River Thames towards Hampton Court, offering a scenic setting for both half marathon and marathon runners.
The accurately measured, UK Athletics certified route follows a flat riverside towpath with virtually no elevation change. Half marathon runners complete four laps, while marathon participants complete eight laps of the course. The off road surface and level terrain make the event suitable for runners aiming for a personal best or completing a longer distance in a relaxed environment.
With a limited field of 250 entrants, the Riverside Marathon & Half Marathon provides a smaller scale alternative to large city races. All finishers receive a medal, and the repeated laps offer regular opportunities to return towards the event base while enjoying views along the Thames.
