Route information

The Denbies Marathon & Half Marathon is back for 2025
Firstly, you get up to 30 hours to finish this event - yep you read that right - from 8.00am on Saturday 21st June right through to 2.00pm on Sunday 22nd June, so if you fancy having a go at your very first Marathon or Half Marathon then you won't find a longer cut off time anywhere. But the fun doesn't stop there because we're offering completely flexible start times from 8.00am Saturday right up until late morning on Sunday 22nd, which means that if you start later, say at 11pm on Saturday, you could try your first evening or even night run. You can also run more than one half marathon or marathon if you like, by simply entering the event more than once and starting when you like within the start window.
The Minotaur, Hydra and Centaur ultra marathons will be going on at the same time, so you will have loads of company to spur you around the course!
The route is a single 1 mile loop (with an extra bit for the 0.1 or 0.2 miles required to run a half marathon or marathon), which has been made as flat as possible, and, depending on what time you choose to start you'll have up to 24 hours to run your marathon or half marathon.
The medal for this event will be one of Phoenix Running's awesome medal/buckles meaning they'll have a selection of epic buckle/medal colours for you to choose from.

What's included

  • Phoenix Running Community Finisher's medal / buckle
  • Fully stocked aid station with sweets, snacks and drinks
  • Chip timing, which includes a link to the live online lap count to allow friends and family to track your progress
