The Taunton Half Marathon made its return for its 40th edition on Sunday 1 March 2026, and what a day it was. From supporters lining the route and cheering runners on, to volunteers and local businesses getting behind the event, it truly felt like a whole‑community celebration.
A huge congratulations to everyone who took part, with a special shout‑out to Dan, Harvey, Richard and Niamh, who took on the 13.1‑mile challenge and proudly crossed the finish line to collect their well‑earned finishers’ medals.
The team chose to fundraise for ARK at Egwood, a local charity supporting mental health and emotional wellbeing through outdoor and land‑based activities — a cause that aligns closely with Lentells’ values and commitment to supporting mental wellbeing. We’re delighted to share that the team raised an incredible £520 for ARK, and we’d like to say a huge thank you to everyone who donated and showed their support.
As a firm, we’re incredibly proud of everyone involved — from those who ran the race, to those who supported from the sidelines, donated, shared fundraising links and cheered the team on.
Finally, congratulations to Active South West on hosting such a successful event. We’re already looking forward to being back for the 41st edition on 28 March 2027.
