The Berkhamsted Half Marathon is an ideally timed event for runners coming back to competitive running after winter training (or hibernation!)

It is frequently used as a serious “marker” for those training for the full marathon distance of the London Marathon and elsewhere. See Runners World details and reviews on the event. (please note that, by popular demand, yet more toilet facilities will be provided this year!)

The five mile Fun Run attracts many entrants and, like the Half Marathon,  tracks through very  attractive Chilterns countryside. Many participants also raise sponsorship for their own particular charity

The event is organised by the two Rotary Clubs of Berkhamsted who aim to organise a successful and challenging half-marathon event together with an interesting fun run. Over the years this Rotary event has raised more than £250,000 for various charities. By taking part in 2010 you will be helping raise much needed funds for two local care organisations, the Pepper Foundation and the Hospice of St Francis together with other local charities.  

Total care when time is precious
