Ringland Half Marathon

A new race , part of the Sportlink Grand Prix Series , from Norwich Road Runners. We appreciated  the success of the popular Broadland Half Marathon  but now it was time to look for a new venue to accommodate the ever increasing demand.

The race takes a similar approach to the previous race, through Norfolk Countryside with additional benefits, such as partly closed roads, increased race capacity and on site parking.

The race is chip timed with a quality medal and goody bag for all finishers, a technical t shirt is also available to purchase through the entry process.

Held under UKA Rules. Permit Number: 2019-36661
