Leicestershire Half Marathon

Take on a scenic Half Marathon through the beautiful Leicestershire countryside, enjoying the freedom of fully closed roads and stunning rural views. Starting and finishing at Charnwood College in Loughborough, the route winds through Shepshed, Belton and Hathern, offering the perfect mix of rolling countryside and race-day atmosphere.

This traffic-free course is ideal for runners looking for a rewarding challenge, with supportive local communities and picturesque country lanes helping you every step of the way. Whether you're aiming for a strong finish or simply soaking up the experience, it's a fantastic way to enjoy running at its best.

Sign up for this charity event today and join the community fighting to make sure no one misses out on the end-of-life care they need. Hospice UK are the national champion for hospices, and we fight every day to make sure that hospice care is available to all who need it, for now and forever.

This is a charity race place, and everything you raise will help us to support the 200+ hospices we represent across the UK. They do everything they can for children and adults living with long-term illness, or approaching the end of their lives. By taking on this extraordinary challenge for Hospice UK you'll help us ensure everyone affected by death, dying and bereavement gets the care and support they need, when they need it. 

If you've been lucky enough to secure your own place in the Leicestershire Half Marathon, we'd love to welcome you.
There is no minimum sponsorship if you have your own place, but aim high and you'll be amazed at what you can achieve. All you have to do is link your entry to Hospice UK and we'll be in touch to say hello and provide your fundraising pack.

• Fundraising pack full of ideas and advice.
• Hospice UK t-shirt and fundraising materials.
• Dedicated point of contact in the Events Team.
• Lots of encouragement and advice along the way.
