We had a great turnout this year. 1283 runners finished the two events. All the results can be found on the website https://results.sporthive.com/for/frsystems. See our page 2023 Winners for the fastest runners and teams in each category.
We're showing pictures of some of the winners on our main Rotary website - take a look here.
Thanks to all our great runners, and the many wonderful supporters and local organisations that have made our 40th another excellent event. We hope you've all enjoyed taking part.
We're deeply grateful to all the generous sponsors listed on the banner above and suppliers who together make our event possible.
The 41st event will take place on Sunday 3rd March 2024. Get it in your calendar, please!
The Half Marathon
The Berkhamsted Half Marathon, which tracks through very attractive Chilterns countryside, is an ideally timed event for runners coming back to competitive running after winter training (or hibernation!) It is frequently used a serious "marker" for those training for the full marathon distance of the London Marathon and elsewhere
2023 Sponsors
The Organisers
The event is promoted by Berkhamsted Rotary Club who aim to organise a successful and challenging half-marathon event together with an interesting 5 mile fun run. Over the years this Rotary event has raised more than £250,000 for various charities
Schools Challenge
We offer a £250 School Prize for the top 4 girls and boys in School teams entering the 5 mile Fun Run. See conditions here. Entering a team will also enable students to raise cash through personal or team sponsorship for their favourite charity and everyone will get fit too! Most schools have been contacted with details of how to enter a team but if not then email us for details.
The Five Mile Fun Run
The Five Mile Fun run is a very popular event with local runners, especially family teams, local schools and community groups who raise sponsorship for their own charitable causes. Sharing part of the Half Marathon route through beautiful countryside, finishing the run gives a great sense of achievement
