Henley Half Marathon
The event features a road race route that passes through Henley town centre, crosses Henley Bridge and continues into the surrounding countryside. The course returns along the Thames towpath, goes back through the town centre and climbs a mile long section known as Heartbreak Hill before a descent and a flat run back to the Rugby Club.
