Race Information

OFFICIALLY THE WORLD’S FLATTEST MARATHON & HALF MARATHON

Battersea Park is one of London’s most picturesque parks and has been a favourite course for those wanting to run a PB! The course is totally flat, offering the perfect opportunity to push yourself to a personal best. Starting at the Millennium Arena, the marathon course follows 10 laps of the park before finishing back on the Athletics Track, under the Iconic RunThrough  Gantry! The Lapped course makes it easy to follow and great for any spectators to catch you flying around the course.

If you’re looking for a fast 5k, then look no further- join in on the 5k Track race on the Millennium Arena track. Take on 12.5 Laps of the track to perfectly pace that 5k pb.

Make this a fun day out for the family, with the 1km Kids Race around the athletics track!
