Overview
This popular Kent Spring race sees a two-lap marathon and a single lap half marathon, covering the undulating, quiet, wide lanes outside Ashford in Kent plus a short section on the Pilgrims Way. Both races carry UKA licences and are accurately measured and both races are suitable for runners of all abilities, from experienced athletes to those new to these distances. This event always attracts great reviews and, for those of you who are seasoned marathon pros, the event makes a refreshing change from some of the busy, big city affairs.

Please note: there is a six hour cut off for this event.
If it will take you longer please contact info@nice-work.org.uk
