Run Fest Silverstone Half Marathon
Run Fest Silverstone Half Marathon is a flat half marathon in Silverstone, UK, held each November. Run in laps of the Silverstone Grand Prix circuit, through corners such as Copse and down the Hangar Straight — flat and wide, but exposed to the wind. Often cold and windy on the open circuit, around 3 to 9°C. Flat courses like Silverstone's reward metronomic pacing — the danger is going out faster than goal pace because it feels cheap early.
