Hastings Half Marathon

16/09/2026

Introducing The Hastings Half Relay.

Half the Distance. Double the Fun 👯

Grab your bestie and conquer the course together! 🏃‍♀️🏃‍♂️

New for 2027, we’re opening the Hastings Half Marathon to more people than ever with a brand new relay race - giving you and your running partner the chance to experience that legendary race day atmosphere!

By splitting our iconic route into two manageable sections, you’ll both soak up the electric crowd support and race day glory without running the whole distance solo.

Couch to 5k graduates, social runners, and friend groups looking for an epic challenge…we have built this for you.

How it works:

👯 Two Legs (Leg 1 ~10.8km Leg 2 ~10.3km): Team up in pairs to take on the route together

⛰️ The Strategy: One tackles the epic uphill section, the other flies down the downhill return!

🏅 The Rewards: BOTH runners get official race bibs, chip timing and a shiny finisher medal

🙌 No pressure, just good vibes: Swap speed for high-fives and shared team energy.

Tag your bestie - who’s running this with you?👇

🏃‍♂️ WE COULDN’T HAVE DONE IT WITHOUT OUR VOLUNTEERS 🏃‍♀️

As the dust settles on another incredible Hastings Half Marathon, we wanted to take a moment to shine a spotlight on our brilliant volunteers🌟

We have received SO much positive feedback about our volunteers, and it hasn't stopped since race day!

Have photos of volunteers out on the course? Share them below, we'd love to see them!

To every volunteer: THANK YOU! This event simply wouldn’t happen without you ❤️

We would like to extend a big thank you to Sussex Police for their support of our event.

While the vast majority of our community is incredibly patient, the police have been following up with and visiting the small number of motorists whose behaviour was found wanting. We really appreciate the police taking these reports seriously.

Community spirit is what makes the Hastings Half Marathon so special. Thank you to everyone who marshalled, clapped, cheered and helped keep the runners safe. See you next year! 🏅✨

🏃‍♀️ Well done to everyone who took part in last weekend’s half marathon!

The sunshine made for a fantastic event, and it was brilliant to see so many runners supporting such worthwhile charities. Thank you to everyone who lined the route, volunteered, or cheered from the side-lines, you helped make the day a real success.

From a neighbourhood policing perspective, we work closely with event organisers who carefully plan road closures to ensure disruption is kept to an absolute minimum. Despite those efforts, a small number of drivers chose not to respect the closures and caused difficulties for volunteers and participants.

We’ve received details from event marshals, of two drivers, that will be getting a surprise visit from officers.

A big thank you once again to the runners, organisers, volunteers, and residents who supported the event so positively. 🏃
