About the Oxford Half Marathon

The fast and flat Oxford Half returns on Sunday 11 October 2026, offering the perfect route for both first-time runners and PB chasers through the pristine, winding streets of historic Oxford.

Since its debut in 2011, the Oxford Half has cemented itself as a UK autumn running classic, blending Oxford’s rich history and unmatched charm. Every step, steeped in character. Every kilometre, history in the making. The streets of Oxford are calling!

Run the Oxford Half Marathon for Breakthrough T1D and help to raise funds for type one diabetes (T1D) research, bringing us one step closer to a cure.
