Run Sandringham Half Marathon & Community Mile

The main race will start and finish within the Sandringham Estate, and take in the stunning countryside views of Sandringham, and the Royal House and Park.

The course will be marshalled and clearly signposted. Unfortunately due to the nature of the route, no pets, wheelchairs or prams are able to be used within the race.

The course is mainly on the trails through and surrounding the estate, as well as closed roads that are traffic free. Please follow all signage and Marshal’s directions at all times and keep to the left unless instructed otherwise. There is no time limit on this event, although you may be directed to the pavement if you do not reach 10 miles within 3.5 hours to allow roads to reopen on time.

Medical teams will be present onsite - if you feel pain, experience dizziness or any other symptoms immediately stop running and seek help from a marshal, who can radio through for medical assistance.

There will be at least 3 water stations out on the course. Run Sandringham is a sustainable plastic free event - so please bring refillable bottles where possible, and we can refill these at the designated water stations on route.

In ear Headphones are banned from the race. Bone conducting headphones though are permitted – so long as you can still hear marshal instructions clearly.

Appropriate footwear should be worn. The routes are a mix of closed road and trail.

A bespoke medal, and finish goodies will be available to all runners. Chip Timing is in operation on the Half Marathon only.

Trophies are awarded to the top three male and female runners, and first in each age category
