Henley Half Marathon

The event takes place on 18 October 2026 in Henley, based at Henley Rugby Club on Marlow Road (RG9 2JA). The course runs through the town, over Henley Bridge and into the surrounding countryside, returns along the Thames towpath, passes back through the town centre and includes "heartbreak hill", a roughly one-mile climb, followed by a descent and a flat finish back to the rugby club. The course is supervised by a course management team of about 50 marshals and uses road protection, warning signs, coning and focused marshalling at pinch points. Spectators are permitted. The event is not suited to wheelchair users; participants with specialised equipment are asked to contact organisers before entering. Buggies, pushchairs and similar devices are prohibited except in the Family Fun Run.
