RunThrough Town Moor & Exhibition Park Half Marathon, 10k, 5k & Junior October 2026

Join us for RunThrough Town Moor & Exhibition Park 5K, 10K, Half Marathon & Kids Race on Sunday 11th October 2026

Race in the heart of Newcastle upon Tyne on a fast, flat course that links the historic grounds of Exhibition Park with the open expanse of Town Moor. With the city skyline around you and views toward St James’ Park, this is a standout autumn run for PB chasers, first-timers, and club runners.

Expect smooth park paths, clear signage, and a friendly atmosphere from start to finish. Closed routes within the parkland keep things simple and supportive, with enthusiastic marshals and great spectator spots to lift every kilometre.

You can now grab your Town Moor & Exhibition Park 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.
