Description
We are excited to announce the return of the Hillsborough Castle & Gardens Running Festival, including family races, a 5k, a 10k, and a half marathon! Come and run the event at Hillsborough Castle on Sunday 30th July 2023 and take the opportunity to race around this unique location!
These ROAD CLOSED races will start and finish within the beautiful Grounds of Hillsborough Castle, before heading out onto the surrounding rural roads of Hillsborough and taking in historic attractions in the local area such as Hillsborough Fort and Hillsborough Lake, and finishing with a lap of the Gardens before crossing the finish line in the event village. Each mile is accurately marked out with distance flags and we have plenty of helpers to keep you on track and to encourage you on your way to the finish.
*PLEASE NOTE: DUE TO ROAD CLOSURES THERE IS A STRICT 3 HOUR CUT OFF TIME FOR THE HALF MARATHON!
