Do I need to be fast? Is there a cut off time?

You do not need to be an expert runner to take part in Chippenham Half Marathon. The race welcomes beginners and advanced runners alike.

There is a cut off time of 3:20 hours. If you’re not sure you’ll make this time, don’t worry! You have two options. You can either take a short cut by turning left and cutting out the ‘Avon Loop’ or you can elect to do the full distance. If you take the short cut, you’ll officially be marked as DNF (did not finish). If you elect to complete the entire distance, you’ll simply risk reduced marshalling and a reduced fininishing reception.

Is there a minimum age?

You need to be at least 17 years old to take part in the Chippenham Half Marathon.

Is the course hilly?

A predominantly flat and fast course with light traffic, this half marathon route will be perfect for achieving a Personal Best!
