2027 Meadows Marathon

A genuine 42.195km marathon run as 18 laps of a 1.5-mile (2.4km) loop around The Meadows, a flat city-centre park. Each loop carries a gentle rise (the park climbs roughly 75m to 90m), so it is not pancake-flat: expect around +280m of cumulative climbing across all laps. Open charity entry, no Boston qualifier, smallest field of the day's distances
