ABP Newport Wales Marathon

Enjoy an unbeatable Welsh sporting welcome!

This awesome event has been expanded into an exciting festival of running with the addition of a brand new half marathon and a wide range of races on offer.

The popular marathon is a firm favourite in the Welsh running calendar, boasting one of the flattest marathon courses in Europe. Over 70% of all finishers have claimed a PB on a route that offers iconic landmarks, like the city’s Transporter Bridge and the stunning scenery of the Gwent Levels – with its coastal wildlife and picturesque medieval villages.

For those keen to improve their time over 26.2 miles, the course has been named in a list of ‘10 of the fastest marathons in the world’ by Runners World.

The fast and fun supporting half marathon and 10K races give runners of all abilities the opportunity to experience the marathon atmosphere, without committing to the 26.2-mile distance.
