Sheffield Half Marathon - Sunday 04 April 2027
The Sheffield Half Marathon is a city centre road race starting at Arundel Gate. The route includes a climb to Ringinglow that offers views of the Peak District and features a distinctive "triple test" format: a timed hill climb for the Peaks Challenge, a timed 10K downhill sprint that begins on Hathersage Road, and the standard half marathon finish that determines the Sheffield title.
Entrants must be 17 years or older on the day. The event provides chip timing, a finisher medal, a goody bag and an optional finisher t-shirt. Water stations with 330 ml bottles and recycling bins are placed on course and first aid stations are located near water stations. A first aid unit and a recovery unit are positioned close to the finish, with roaming first aiders around the Event Village.
On-site services include baggage storage (labels are attached to the race number), event photography, race results published after the race, and a massage service by Top Tier Physio. Pacers with visible flags will be available on course. Clothing left at the start will be collected for donation unless placed in the baggage store.
Travel options listed for the event are car, bus, rail or tram and bike; Castle Square tram stop is the closest tram stop to the start. Park and Ride locations across the city are suggested because road closures may affect access. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
