The RunThrough Newcastle Half Marathon & 10k July 2026 returns with closed-road courses that take in the countryside lanes around Newcastle Airport and Dinnington, with the race hub at Kingston Park stadium. The event is organised by RunThrough in partnership with Newcastle Frontrunners and forms part of Pride Month awareness activity, emphasising inclusivity and community engagement. Both races are positioned as accessible options for a wide range of abilities, with a mixture of flat and undulating country-lane running on fully road‑closed sections.
Races start at 09:00 local time with a stated three‑hour cut‑off due to road closures, and the event offers chip timing, a unique themed finisher medal and free race photography. Participants can opt to purchase an official RunThrough kit item via RT Kit rather than receiving a standard event T‑shirt, and the finish area is described as well serviced with marshals, refreshments and post‑race goodies. Practical access is supported by nearby Metro stations and stadium parking, but the organiser asks entrants to check final start/finish locations and logistic details before race day.
