The crash of the waves, the sea salt that lingers on the cool coastal air... it's the best 10k & half marathon of the season at the Clacton Half Marathon & 10k!

Overview
This is a true seafront race, taking place along both the top and bottom promenades, with plenty of holidaymakers and day trippers to cheer you on! The course for both races is largely flat and both are suitable for runners of all standards, from those looking to complete their first event to seasoned athletes. The marshals are completely wonderful, providing superlative support throughout each and every distance. This race is an absolute corker and continues to grow in reputation, so early booking is advised to secure your place.
