Leamington Spa Half Marathon

The Leamington Spa Half Marathon, now in its ninth year, promises another thrilling run through the heart of Royal Leamington Spa. This beloved event continues to draw runners from near and far with its scenic route that weaves around iconic landmarks such as the Royal Pump Room Gardens.
Starting and finishing at this historic site, participants will embark on a picturesque journey northward out of town, passing through charming villages nestled in Warwickshire’s countryside. The course then ventures into serene landscapes dotted with farms and fields before winding back down to finish where it all began. This loop offers runners not only the chance to experience the beauty of rural England but also an intimate look at Leamington Spa's vibrant community.
The race is more than just a run; it’s a celebration that supports important causes like Safeline, which provides vital services for those affected by sexual abuse and rape through free counseling, helplines, and ISVA support. By participating in the half marathon, runners contribute to making a difference in people's lives while enjoying an event tailored with thoughtful touches such as finisher medals and eco-friendly t-shirts designed to minimize waste.
Organized by Raceways, this well-organized race features chip timing for accurate results and post-race snacks to refuel after crossing the finish line. Additionally, there’s always a chance to capture memories through professional photography available on-site. The event village in Pump Room Gardens is conveniently located near both start and finish lines, offering runners and spectators alike easy access to services and amenities.
For families looking for an inclusive day out, the Kids Mile Fun Run offers young participants aged 16 and under their own race experience with a free medal upon completion. This initiative ensures that every member of the family can enjoy the festivities while contributing positively to a worthy cause.
Mark your calendars for Sunday, June 7th, 2026, as you prepare to take part in what promises to be an unforgettable day filled with scenic runs and meaningful community engagement.
