Reading Half Marathon Discount Codes May 2025 - 40% OFF

In 1983, Reading University at White Knights Park hosted the first Reading Half Marathon, which was a joint start and finish event. 5,000 runners participated in the race, won by 21-year-old Mark Curzons, who finished in 67.45 seconds. Aside from completing the Reading Half Marathon through Reading's downtown, where participants will see the best of the city, the race also goes past the picturesque grounds of the University of Reading. More than 15,000 spectators cheer the rummers into the stadium and over the finish line during the race, which is seldom seen outside of an Olympic stadium. Its friendliness, organization, and reputation make it a favorite for all runners, whether they run for recreation, fitness, a club, or professionally.
