THIS IS THE ONLY 10K RACE TO BE HELD AT THIS FAMOUS AND HISTORIC ROYAL HOME. HAMPTON COURT PALACE IS ONE OF ONLY TWO SURVIVING PALACES THAT KING HENRY VIII OWNED. THE RACE WILL START INSIDE THE GATES OF HAMPTON COURT PALACE AND FINISH IN ITS BEAUTIFUL GARDENS. AFTER YOU’VE FINISHED YOUR RACE YOU CAN VISIT THE FAMOUS MAZE AND THE WORLD’S LARGEST GRAPE VINE.
YOU GET A COOL MEDAL
YOU MAY HAVE SEEN OUR UNIQUE PALACE HALF CHARACTERS POPPING UP ON OUR WEBSITE AND FACEBOOK. OUR CUSTOM MADE MEDAL WILL BE BASED ON KING HENRY VIII AS OUR PREVIOUS HAMPTON COURT PALACE HALF MARATHON RACES HAVE.
THE COURSE IS FLAT
One of the main benefits Hampton Court Palace has for running is being placed next to the River Thames. This means that ground around and inside the Palace is flat.
