Richmond Half Marathon 2026
All about the half marathon
- Start in the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, run along Richmond riverside, take in the historic Ham House and finish in Old Deer Park in Richmond.
- It’s a flat and fast course, so there’s a good chance you can beat your PB.
- Get free entry to Kew Gardens for up to four spectators (two adults, two children).
- Finish at an all day family fun music festival in Old Deer Park, Richmond.
- Looking for the other Runfest distances? Here’s the 10k and the Richmond marathon .

Accessibility
Any participant who requires a guide runner can have a free place for their guide. Unfortunately, the Half Marathon is not accessible to wheelchair users as these routes are uneven and narrow and could be unsafe.
Your fundraising helps us reach more people
Together, we can reach disabled people with complex needs and their families at a time when they need it most. With the help of our amazing #TeamSense fundraisers, we can continue providing even more support:
- £135 could pay for a family to make memories on a Sense Family Day.
- £500 could pay for a deafblind child to have a visit from a Sense specialist teacher, including an assessment and expert advice.
- £725 could provide tailored support for a family for a whole year!
