Royal Parks Half Marathon 2026
This half marathon in central London is a stunning 13.1 miles event taking in four of London’s Royal Parks – Kensington Gardens, Hyde Park, St James’s Park and The Green Park.
A closed roads route that brushes past some of London’s famous landmarks including The Houses of Parliament, Trafalgar Square and Buckingham Palace.
The event village in Hyde Park has a fantastic food and fitness festival so offering a great day out for runners and supporters alike.
The Royal Parks Half is a beautiful event with charity at its heart and has raised nearly £60 million for over 1000 charity partners since 2008.

Wooden Spoon works with some event suppliers to provide a platform for our members and supporters to fundraise for the charity. There is a cost to the charity to administer these events and therefore we have set minimum fundraising levels which we view as achievable based on previous participants. It is at Wooden Spoon’s discretion whether to allow the participants to take part or not for the charity, if fundraising levels are not met. Thanks for your understanding.
