The Maypole Project Chislehurst Half Marathon
The Maypole Project Chislehurst Half Marathon takes place in Chislehurst, Greater London, starting and finishing at the Glebe Football Club. The event is set within a leafy ward where the urban environment meets the countryside, utilizing the parks and commons of the local area.
The course is a half marathon distance and is described as multi-terrain and undulating. The route explores the green spaces and historical areas of Chislehurst, often referred to as the green lungs of the village. The event is part of the Kent Grand Prix race series and is open to entrants aged 17 and over.
Participants receive a bespoke medal upon completion, and trophies or prizes are awarded to the leading runners. The event is organized as a charity race, with all profits supporting The Maypole Project. This local charity provides emotional and psychological support to families of children and young people diagnosed with complex illnesses or disabilities across Kent and South London.
Registration options include standard entry or a HEROES ticket, which includes a specific donation to the charity to fund play therapy materials for children. Participants can also opt for an entry that includes a fundraising commitment and a charity vest. Detailed route maps and GPX files are provided to runners before the event.
