Registration to take part in the 2023 Milton Keynes Marathon will open next week for early bird entries.
The much-loved Milton Keynes Marathon Weekend will return in 2023 for the weekend of 30th April – 1st May 2023.
MK Marathon organisers have today announced that registration will open next week, September 1st.
Andy Hully, Race Director and Founder said: “The stadium has been a great home to the event for 10 years, however, we are now ready to create more of a festival feel, and finishing right next to the Campbell Park amphitheatre will mean that our runners will be able to experience a great festival-style atmosphere when they finish. This will include tasty street food, a bar, and a line-up of top entertainment on the stage, hosted by MKFM.”
Andy added: “Excellent parking facilities, a good range of local hotel options, and a mainline train station within walking distance all add to the appeal of Campbell Park as our venue.
“We’re blessed with a tremendous amount of natural beauty in Milton Keynes, and we’re also lucky to have a world-class system of cycle paths known as redways. We have taken advantage of those factors to show off our green city, giving our runners a course that is scenic, interesting, inspiring, fun to run, fast, and excitingly different from other marathons. It is also much flatter and with fewer underpasses.
"The routes will mostly include lovely green spaces as well as some of the beautiful original villages. The marathon will be a 2-lap route meaning more support and entertainment on the route. The ever popular and aptly named Rocket 5K will become a looped course, removing the need to book a return coach ticket.”
The Milton Keynes Marathon Weekend 2023 has been set for 30th April – 1st May and registration will open on 1st September.
