Hertfordshire Marathon

The Helping Herts Marathon Challenge is a fully supported 26-mile countryside challenge through some of Hertfordshire’s most beautiful villages, lanes and landscapes. It is open to walkers, joggers and runners alike.

Starting and finishing in Benington, this circular route offers participants the freedom to take on the challenge in their own way. We anticipate that finish times will range between 3 hours 30 minutes and 10 hours.

With multiple start times (one for runners and one for walkers), regular drinks points, staffed checkpoints and a welcoming event HQ at Bennington Village Hall, the day is carefully planned to support everyone taking part.

This challenge takes place during the Helping Herts July match-funding week, meaning the money you raise is eligible to be doubled, helping your miles go even further.

The entry fee is just £25 and then we ask for a commitment to raise a minimum of £100.
