Sheffield Half Marathon

In Yorkshire, 594 people a week receive the devastating news of being diagnosed with cancer. The money you raise can make a real difference as we fund doctors, hospitals and cancer experts to improve treatments and save lives.

The Sheffield Half Marathon is a major event in the UK's running calendar which attracts lots of runners of all ages and abilities to the Steel City's streets. This event boasts a beautifully scenic route including gorgeous views of the Peak District. This varied race also gives entrants a chance to participate in a timed hill climb in order to be crowned 'King of the Hill' or 'Queen of the Hill'. On top of this, there's also a 10K downhill sprint section to look forward to.
