Torbay Half Marathon Entry, Date & Race Guide

The Torbay Half Marathon is a popular South West race set along the English Riviera, offering a scenic coastal route through Torquay, Paignton, and Brixham. Known for its sea views and lively atmosphere, it’s a standout event in the regional running calendar.

The course is run on closed roads and features a mix of flat sections and coastal undulations, making it more challenging than a typical flat half marathon but highly rewarding. The seaside setting and strong local support create an enjoyable race-day experience from start to finish.

The Torbay Half Marathon attracts a wide range of runners, from first-time half marathoners to experienced club runners. It’s well suited to those looking for a scenic challenge or as part of a build-up to a marathon, rather than a pure PB course.
