Route information
Based at Victoria Park, one of London's biggest green spaces, this event offers a distance to suit every kind of runner. With a half marathon, 10k and 5k to choose from, all abilities are welcome, and the fast, flat course across the park's pavements make this event ideal for those looking to achieve a fast time.
All races start and finish on Victoria Park's Northern Drive, opposite the Burdett-Coutts drinking fountain. The routes will be marked every mile for the half marathon and every kilometre for the 10k and 5k.
The half marathon starts on the Northern Drive, following it for 800m. As you approach the northeastern corner near the VPH Clubhouse, the route follows the perimeter path along Southern Drive for 2.5k. A stretch up Central Drive concludes your first lap, and you will have to complete a further 5 laps to complete your half marathon distance.
The 10k will consist of 3 laps of this route. 5k runners will complete 1 small loop, heading north to the first marshal point, followed by another larger loop, which will finish by turning on to Northern Drive.
