Organiser's Description
Run our award winning marathon with thousands of other runners on Bank Holiday Monday 6th May. Our England Athletics affiliated event is measured to a world wide standard and is a qualifying event for London, Boston and other majors.
We’re blessed with a tremendous amount of natural beauty in Milton Keynes. We’re also lucky to have a world-class system of cycle paths. We do our best to take advantage of those factors to give our runners a course that’s interesting, inspiring, fun to run, fast and different from other marathons. Plus an amazing stadium finish. We offer a Marathon, Half Marathon, Marathon Relay, Superhero Fun Run on Bank Holiday Monday 6th May and Rocket 5k the day before on Sunday 5th May.
Runners who participate in both the Rocket 5K on the Sunday and the Half, Marathon or Relay on Bank Holiday Monday will receive a third medal – the MK Challenge Medal.

Amazing marathon. Having missed out on the London Marathon ballot numerous times, the MK marathon became my first. I cannot say enough good things about it. Great atmosphere and support from the marshals and public, well organised drink stations, lovely route and got to run with some friendly fellow runners. Anyone considering a first marathon or any marathon should do MK!

Fun event. Whilst not one of the top tier marathons in the country, this is a really well organised event, with a reasonable field size and strength and a wonderful route through some parks and round the lakes of MK.
Crowds are a little sparse in places, but the little pockets you get make some decent noise with a little encouragement! The course is mainly flat with a few small hills, so good chance of a fast time. Stadium finish was something different!
Really enjoyed it. A fun event!
