About the event

On Sunday, August 22, 2027, Promenade Park in Maldon will host the inaugural ATW Maldon Running Festival. This vibrant celebration of running and community offers four races – Half Marathon (13.1 miles), 5K, Fun Run for families, and a 10K event – set against stunning coastal scenery.
The day kicks off with the Half Marathon at 9:00 AM, beginning in Promenade Park before looping around scenic Heybridge Basin along the Blackwater Estuary. Later races include the family-friendly Fun Run starting at 2 PM followed by the energetic 5K and 10K events at 3 PM and 5 PM respectively.
Each race winds through picturesque parkland and coastal paths, offering runners breathtaking views of Maldon's maritime heritage and historic waterfront. The atmosphere is electric with live music, DJs, and entertainers along every course to keep spirits high throughout the day.
For those seeking a challenge, completing all three main races (5K, 10K, Half Marathon) earns you an exclusive Trifecta Challenge medal at the festival's grand finale on stage. This unique opportunity promises not just miles of running but also a full immersion in Maldon’s vibrant community spirit.
Whether you're chasing personal bests or simply enjoying family fun, this event invites all to experience Essex's beauty and festive energy.
