The Route
The course takes runners through the pristine, winding streets of historic Oxford. The route begins in the city centre and passes through the stunning sites of Old Marston village, the River Cherwell, Oxford University’s impressive Lady Margaret Hall, before finally finishing on Parks Road.
The fast and flat Oxford Half returns in 2025, a perfect route for both newbies and PB chasers. The event sold out in 2023 and 2024 so don’t hang about to secure your entry!
