Overview

The Isle of Wight Marathon celebrated it’s 60th Anniversary in 2016, so 2024 will be the 68th running of this historic race. It has been run continuously since 1957, making it the longest running (and one of the first to be held) in the U.K. The Isle of Wight Marathon is included in the Association of Road Racing Statisticians (ARRS) list of longest running marathons in the world. When the ARRS list was last updated in 2017, it was 25th in the world. Since the cancelation of lots of other marathons in 2020 & 2021, the Isle of Wight Marathon is probably now one of, or the longest running marathon in the UK, possibly the world.
