What is the Reading Half Marathon 2026?
The Reading Half is Reading’s most iconic race! Starting at Green Park, the 13.1 mile route takes in the highlights of the centre of Reading and passes through the beautiful grounds of the University campus. The race culminates in a magnificent finish into the Select Car Leasing stadium and over the finish line.
