Route information
The 2027 Wrexham Half Marathon, provisionally on 28th February, will be the inaugural running of this race, brought to you by the award winning organisers of the Chester 10K, Half and Marathon. The event is within easy walking distance of the city centre, with a start and finish at Queensway Athletics Stadium, a route that takes in the surrounding Welsh countryside and tons of support to cheer you on. The new Wrexham Half Marathon and Wrexham 10K following on in September 2027, promise to bring the same world-class organisation, vibrant atmosphere, and premium finisher experience that has made the Chester Triple Series a sell-out success and a three-time winner of the UK's Best Marathon award.
