ROYAL PARKS HALF MARATHON 2017

Royal Parks Half Marathon set in central London. This race takes you around London’s most famous landmarks on closed roads including London’s eight Royal Parks – Hyde Park, The Green Park, St James’s Park and Kensington Gardens. .

You can enter via ballot entry (costing £58) or a charity place. I was fortunate enough to get in through a ballot entry. I chose not to run for charity due to receiving the ballot place.

The Royal Parks is the charity that supports the magic of London’s eight amazing Royal Parks. They receive a government grant for some of the day-to-day management of the meadows, flower beds, roads and paths but there is no funding

The Royal Parks is the charity that supports the magic of London’s eight amazing Royal Parks. They receive a government grant for some of the day-to-day management of the meadows, flowerbeds, roads and paths but there is no funding for community sport, education, heritage restoration or wildlife conservation programmes. This event was created to give back to the Parks and raise money for all the relevant charities.
