Taking place on Sunday 24th November 2024 and organised by Good Running Events, the Larking Gowen Norwich Half Marathon has long been a major event in the East Anglian running calendar.

A bespoke medal, and goodie bag will be available to all runners. Chip Timing is in operation on the Half Marathon. Trophies are awarded to the top three male and female runners, and first male and female in each age category.

The race will start and finish at Norfolk Showground, and the event features roads that are fully closed for the purpose of the event. The course will be marshalled and clearly signposted. Unfortunately no pets, wheelchairs or prams are able to be used within the race.

The Event Village will be open from 8:30am.

After this date, PLEASE DO NOT pass your race number to someone else.
