RunThrough Newark Half Marathon August

Hawton Road starts the RunThrough Newark Half Marathon August, an inaugural road event with a simple brief: get moving, settle into rhythm, and use the flat profile well. The route heads out on a "fast and flat, scenic course," keeping things straightforward rather than technical. Expect town-street running rather than trail shoes or big climbs, with Cossington on the wider route notes and the line "finishing close to the start" at Sconce & Devon Park. With places capped at 1,000, it sounds like the kind of field where you can race properly without getting swallowed by a huge crowd.
