About the race
The Cambridge Half Marathon is scheduled for Sunday 14 March 2027. It is a 13.1 mile race described as flat and scenic, running through historic streets, college courtyards and sections of Cambridge countryside. The organiser publishes route maps and information on drink stations, toilet provisions, pacers and cut off times.
The course is UKA certified and includes official pacers and checkpoint tracking so family and friends can follow progress. The event features roadside support with musicians, cheer zones and spectators along the route. There are also designated litter drop zones and other route provisions.
Finishers receive a medal and a finisher bag, with the option to pre order a premium finisher T shirt and access to free post race massage. The event provides a Training Hub and a pre race shake out run to support preparation. Results and live tracking are available and prizes are awarded for the top three in each age category.
A related Cambridge x Oxford half marathon challenge links two events; that challenge is limited to 500 places. The 2026 event sold out rapidly and the organiser operates a mailing list for pre registration and entry updates. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
