The Robin Hood Half Marathon offers one of the most scenic and iconic city routes in the UK. This single-lap, 13.1-mile (21.1km) course takes runners on a journey through the rich history and beautiful green spaces of Nottingham.

Starting and finishing at the picturesque Victoria Embankment by the River Trent, the route features a mix of sights and scenery – from the majestic Nottingham Castle and the famous Robin Hood statue, to the peaceful paths of Wollaton Park, where you might spot deer roaming freely.

The course is mostly flat with a few gentle inclines in the early miles, making it ideal for both seasoned runners chasing a PB and first-timers focused on crossing the finish line. With closed roads, supportive crowds, and an electric race-day atmosphere, every step of the route is designed to inspire.

Whether you're running for a cause, chasing a goal, or just soaking in the experience – the Robin Hood Half route delivers a race to remember.
