RICHMOND MARATHON | 11th SEPTEMBER 2022
Like the Richmond Half Marathon and Richmond AIR 10k, the RUNFEST Marathon starts inside Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew. The Richmond Marathon will finish in an all day family fun music festival in Old Deer Park, South West London. This will be extra special this year as we will be celebrating our 10th birthday! Every runner will be rewarded with one of our fabulous traditional triangular shaped medals, as well as a technical running t-shirt (male & female cut).

The Richmond RUNFEST and Worthing RUNFEST is organised by RUNFEST LTD (Company Reg No. 08521533). In 2013, the aim was to organise a fun local event in Richmond Upon Thames involving the whole family and the local community.
10 years later we have raised over £4million for our charity partners and have over 10,000 participants at our Richmond RUNFEST event. We are now branching out with a new RUNFEST event in Worthing and another event called Kew The Run in the beautiful Kew Gardens.
From the outset, we have looked to incorporate all the wonderful examples we have witnessed from all corners of the running world. At RUNFEST we do not like to use the word 'NO' and look to incorporate as many peoples ideas and inspiration as possible. We started this event as a blank canvas and continue to add pencil thin structure and lots of colour to it as we go along.
We hope this is just the start of a wonderful journey for the RUNFEST team and hope to include many people from the running community. If you have any colour that you think will look good on the canvas and want to get involved then please get in touch and help us achieve something different!
