The Newport Wales Marathon is one of Europe's flattest courses, with only 26m of climb and a ~70% PB rate. The route follows the River Usk and Gwent Levels, starting and finishing on Newport's riverfront.

Why attend here

April in Newport brings the first real warmth of spring, making it ideal for a coastal marathon that rolls past the Transporter Bridge and Celtic Manor. Between the miles, you can explore the castle ruins and the waterfront, then refuel with Welsh cakes or a proper cawl in a city-centre pub, all without the summer crowds.
