Eyam Half Marathon
Take on the UK's No. 1 Half Marathon!
The Eyam Half Marathon is ranked as the UK’s No. 1 Half Marathon on RaceCheck reviews, and it's easy to see why! This iconic road route features over 1,500 feet of ascent, rewarding runners with stunning views across five counties. The first Eyam Half Marathon took place in 1993 and has become a favourite in the road racing calendar. While you might not achieve your personal best time, many runners find themselves drawn back to the ‘Rat Race’ once they experience it!
