Zig Zag Half Marathon Entry, Date & Race Guide

The Zig Zag Half Marathon takes place at the Suffolk Running Centre near Bury St Edmunds, offering a well-organised road race on the officially measured Kirtling Route. Set in the Suffolk countryside, it provides a quieter, more rural alternative to larger city half marathons.

The course is fully on road and mildly undulating, making it a steady and runnable route rather than a completely flat PB course. Regular aid stations and clear lap structure support runners throughout, helping create a smooth and controlled race-day experience.

The Zig Zag Half Marathon attracts a mix of club runners, experienced racers, and those building towards longer distances. It’s particularly well suited to runners looking for a structured event in a low-pressure environment, whether targeting a strong performance or using it as part of marathon preparation.
