Hitchin Hard Half Marathon

The Hitchin Hard Half Marathon is a challenging running event held annually in early June in Hitchin, UK. The race features a hilly and undulating 13.1-mile course that starts and finishes at the historic Hitchin Priory, taking runners through scenic country roads, including Preston village and Offley Holes Hill, with five water stations along the route. Alongside the half marathon, the event offers a Tough 10 Miler and a Fierce 5 Miler, plus a Kid's Fun Run.

Participants receive race bibs with timing chips, medals, and access to a race village with food, drinks, and entertainment. The event emphasizes safety with marshals, medical support, and clear signage. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
