Congratulations to our #TeamRaystede runners for completing the 2026 Royal Parks Half Marathon to help animals in need!
The incredible 13.1 mile route takes you through four of the eight Royal Parks – Hyde Park, Green Park, St James’s Park and Kensington Gardens – and past some of the capital’s most iconic sights; including Buckingham Palace, The Mall and the Royal Albert Hall.
Billed as the UK’s most scenic and greenest half marathon, this is a challenge not to be missed!
