Join us for Run Gatwick Half Marathon & 5K on Sunday 21st November 2027!

Take on Run Gatwick, a fast and flat single-loop course built for PB chasers and runners of all levels. Starting in central Crawley, this exciting route blends urban streets with open countryside, delivering a race day experience that feels both energetic and refreshing from start to finish.

The course begins along The Boulevard before heading north towards the peaceful village of Charlwood. Along the way, you’ll pass directly beneath Gatwick Airport’s flight path, with planes soaring overhead as you run. From there, the route turns south through Manor Royal before returning to Crawley town centre, finishing along the High Street with a strong race-day atmosphere.

Each kilometre is accurately marked with distance flags and our friendly marshals will guide and cheer you all the way to the finish. We cannot wait to welcome you to Run Gatwick Half Marathon & 5K!

With RunThrough you can expect a friendly team of marshals to help guide you round the course and cheer you on to the finish, a lively and well-serviced event village with plenty of food and drink options including free goodies from our partners at the finish line after your hard effort.

You can now grab your Run Gatwick Half Marathon & 5K event t-shirt for more than 30% off when you buy it as part of your entry on checkout! With the event logo printed on the chest, it’s the perfect keepsake to celebrate your race and wear your achievement with pride!

We can do this with our partner RT Kit as part of a strategic decision to raise awareness about the quality of the product whilst reducing the overall cost of events for those who would prefer not to have a t-shirt included.

Come and enjoy the day with us. Once you enter you will receive a confirmation email. More information will be sent closer to the event.

We can’t wait to see you on the start line!

Water stations will be located at the 3, 6.5 and 10.3 mile markers on the Half Marathon, and also at the finish. There is no requirement for water stations on the 5k or Family Run routes, except at the finish. At the finish line you will receive water along with your post race goodies and medal.
