Run Northumberland Coquet Half Marathon & 10K

View all races for Jul 2026

The Run Northumberland Coquet features Half Marathon, 10K and 5K races based in the market town of Rothbury. Set in the picturesque Coquet Valley, the event showcases some of Northumberland's finest countryside, with three distances offering a challenge for runners of a wide range of abilities.

The courses follow quiet country roads through the Coquet Valley, combining rolling terrain with sweeping rural views before returning to Rothbury. The Half Marathon offers the longest and most demanding route, while the 10K provides a shorter but equally scenic challenge. The 5K follows a flatter riverside route, making it an accessible option for newer runners and those looking for a faster effort.

The event features accurately measured courses, chip timing, bespoke finisher's medals and a fully marshalled race experience. Combining beautiful scenery, professional organisation and a choice of three distances, the Run Northumberland Coquet has become one of the highlights of the Northumberland summer running calendar.
