Join us for the Leicestershire Half Marathon on Sunday 28th February 2027!

Race a scenic Half Marathon through the Leicestershire countryside on a fully road-closed route that blends community energy with open-road freedom. Starting at Charnwood College in Loughborough, you will head out through Shepshed, Belton, and Hathern on an undulating course that rewards steady pacing and strong legs.

Expect fantastic local support as you make your way back toward the finish, with friendly marshals, clear signage, and a lively event village waiting at the end. The surface is mainly tarmac with some grass sections, giving you a varied and engaging race-day feel.

Entry prices will rise in stages, so securing your place early is the best way to guarantee the lowest rate. Super Early Bird entry ends 15th March, Early Bird entry ends 30th August, Standard entry closes 24th January 2027, and Last Minute entry will be available until race day, subject to availability.

Race Day Schedule

09:00 amHalf Marathon

Each kilometre is accurately marked with distance flags and our friendly marshals will guide and cheer you all the way to the finish. We cannot wait to welcome you to the Leicestershire Half Marathon.

With RunThrough you can expect a friendly team of marshals to help guide you round the course and cheer you on to the finish, a lively and well-serviced event village with plenty of food and drink options including free goodies from our partners at the finish line after your hard effort.

You can now grab your Leicestershire Half Marathon event t-shirt for more than 30% off when you buy it as part of your entry on checkout! With the event logo printed on the chest, it’s the perfect keepsake to celebrate your race and wear your achievement with pride!

We can do this with our partner RT Kit as part of a strategic decision to raise awareness about the quality of the product whilst reducing the overall cost of events for those who would prefer not to have a t-shirt included.

Come and enjoy the day with us. Once you enter you will receive a confirmation email. More information will be sent closer to the event.

We can’t wait to see you on the start line!
