RunThrough, the UK’s largest and Europe’s fastest growing running events company, has announced the return of the RunThrough Battersea Park Half Marathon, scheduled for January 6th, 2024.
This RunThrough event is set to kickstart the new year on a high note for runners and spectators alike.
Known for its popularity and fast, flat course, the RunThrough Battersea Park Half Marathon promises participants an exhilarating experience. Starting and finishing at the iconic Park Bandstand, the course winds through the scenic park and is both flat and fast, offering both seasoned athletes and newcomers an ideal opportunity to achieve their personal bests (PBs).
The half marathon route not only caters to runners aiming for personal milestones but also provides an ideal setting for spectators to cheer on their loved ones due thanks to being a multi lap route.

The course’s reputation for being both quick and spectator-friendly, make it popular among competitors. We are excited to welcome runners back to this iconic event to start the new year on a healthy and high-spirited note.”
One of the highlights of this year’s event is the introduction of a brand-new medal, crafted to commemorate the accomplishment of all participants. Additionally, participants can look forward to the customary post-race goodies, enhancing the overall experience and celebration of their achievements.
