The Tunbridge Wells half marathon is the first event I add to my calendar each year. Some years ago, I entered this as my first ever race in preparation for the Paris Marathon. Since then I have been hooked. I have now returned another seven times to take part, and I drive down from Hertfordshire!
The organisation is fantastic, from the booking through to car parking, number collection, bag drop off, and of course marshalling of the event itself.
The course is challenging but well supported (where does Tunbridge find that many volunteers to Marshall).
Fantastic event that I will be back for in 2025!

As a novice runner it was a pleasure to join the friendly crowd at the TW half for a well organised race day. From arrival through bag-drop to the starting position, water stations, directions and finish it was all smooth sailing. The course itself is pretty good with mostly decent country and village scenery. The mid-way point has the "infamous" uphill section which, if you prepare for, isn't quite as bad as I had expected (still a tough challenge though). Really enjoyed the event.

This is the second time I've done the Tunbridge Wells half. I've done around 20 and it is close to being my favourite half. Not badly priced, good route and beer at the end. Will be back.

Brilliant atmosphere, very well organised, lovely course! Training runs leading up to the event were great too, 10 minute PB!

A pity its t shirts not long sleeve tops which would suit February running. Cutting cost here is not great

No results publication. Why?

Fantastic marshals

Top work all around.

Such a very well organised race over a challenging but scenic route. Some great support out on the course, I would definitely recommend this race!

Lovely half marathon with good countryside views and plenty of support on route, with excellent Marshalls. Some big hills, but plenty of downhills meaning course is great for a PB. Would not recommend to a beginner runner though due to the 3 hour cut off and said hills. Would be nice to have a 2 hour 30 pacer, and was good to be able to collect race number and T-shirt ahead of the event!

A lovely half marathon with fantastic organisation and really friendly marshals. Its fair to say the course is undulating with a killer hill at the 8 mile mark! I will definitely be doing it again.

Can you flattern the hill at mile 8 lol
