Race overview
About Tunbridge Wells Half Marathon
The Tunbridge Wells Half Marathon is a well-known UK half marathon held in Kent, recognised for its scenic countryside setting and challenging, hilly 13.1-mile route.
Starting in Royal Tunbridge Wells, the course heads out onto rural roads through the surrounding High Weald, featuring a series of climbs and descents that make it one of the more demanding half marathons in the South East. The undulating profile means it is not typically suited to personal best attempts, instead appealing to runners looking for a tougher test of endurance and strength.
The event has built a strong reputation over many years, with excellent organisation and enthusiastic local support. It attracts a mix of experienced club runners and those specifically seeking out more challenging courses early in the season.
Known for its character and difficulty, the race is often used as a benchmark fitness test ahead of spring marathon campaigns.
