Millbrook Marathon presented by the EDRRC

Millbrook Marathon presented by the EDRRC is run in Millbrook on April 11, 2027, starting at 7:30 a.m. The marathon (26.2 miles) is the only distance on offer, so the entire field is running the same race.

Club-organised single-distance marathons tend to draw smaller, more experienced fields, which means less congestion at the start and fewer runners around you in the closing miles. Plan for that: the last ten kilometres may be a solo effort, so practise running long alone rather than always in a group. Sixteen weeks with a weekly long run building towards twenty miles is the usual framework, and with an April date most of that mileage lands in winter conditions you will need to plan around.
