Standing Together for a Cause
This year, Scimitar proudly joined the Ealing Half Marathon as the official merchandise partner — and what a weekend it was! It was our first time working with this iconic race, and we couldn’t be happier with how the event turned out.
The Ealing Half Marathon is well known for its lively atmosphere, welcoming community, and incredible support along the route. Thousands of runners and spectators came together to celebrate not just running, but also the spirit of Ealing. Being part of that was a fantastic experience for our team.
Bringing exclusive race-day merchandise
For this event, we created and sold a wide range of exclusive Ealing Half Marathon gear. Our stand featured hoodies, sweaters, t-shirts, caps, beanies, and neck warmers — all designed to keep runners and supporters looking and feeling great before, during, and after race day.
It was amazing to see the excitement for the merchandise. From the moment the event village opened, people were eager to check out what we had to offer. Many stopped by to pick up something special to remember the day. In fact, the response was so strong that we sold out of several popular products by the end of the weekend.
A fantastic first partnership
This was the first time Scimitar worked with the Ealing Half Marathon, and we’re delighted to have been part of such a successful event. Our team loved meeting so many passionate runners, supporters, and volunteers. The energy on the day was contagious and made the experience truly memorable.
“The event was fantastic — the runners and supporters were so excited about the merchandise. It was great to work with Sandra and the rest of the Race Nation crew, who were incredible on the day. It was lovely to see so many familiar faces”
- Kieren Holmes, Account Manager at Scimitar
“Scimitar are a top addition to the Ealing Half Marathon. From start to finish on design, delivery and even the shop on the day, they were a great team to work with. Lovely new designs to refresh our merchandise, and the runners are snapping up the items to look the part!“
- Sandra Courtney, Event Director
