Race Description

The 6th Tonbridge Half Marathon is being organised jointly by Tonbridge Rotary Club and Tonbridge Lions Club to raise money for the Kent, Surrey and Sussex Air Ambulance, the Tonbridge Cottage Hospital League of Friends and other local charities.  Runners are also encouraged to raise money for their own chosen charities – over £50,000 was raised in each of the first five years!  

The Tonbridge Half Marathon is a pan-handle out and back course, encompassing an accurately measured course on roads and lanes to the south of Tonbridge town. Most of the course has complete road closure, and there are four water stations and toilet facilities. This is a challenging race where you’ll receive huge support as you go through the tranquil village of Leigh, both on your way out and again on the way back, and an equally enthusiastic welcome on your return to Tonbridge. The crowd support around the course is brilliant, particularly in Leigh. The venue is easy to reach by train or car and there is ample parking close to the start.  The facilities at West Kent College are fantastic with male and female changing, secure bag storage, massage room, café, a sizeable race village and LOADS of toilets.
