Henley Half Marathon – Run the Scenic Route: Your Henley Half Marathon, 10k, 5k and Fun Run Adventure Awaits!

The Henley Half Marathon is a popular town-centre road race held in Henley-on-Thames that on 18 October 2026 offers a choice of distances including a half marathon, 10k, 5k and a family fun run. The event is promoted under the Henley Half Marathon branding and is billed as a scenic route that passes iconic local landmarks such as Henley Bridge and the Leander Club while running alongside the Thames. Runners of all abilities are welcomed, from first-time half-marathoners to experienced competitors, with a lively event atmosphere and on-line merchandise available.

The signature half marathon follows a single heart-shaped 13.1-mile loop from Henley Rugby Club, crossing Henley Bridge twice and including the well-known "Heartbreak Hill" climb before a flat finish back at the Rugby Club. The organiser notes the use of road closures at the start to help ensure runner safety and a town-centre start/finish that is convenient for spectators. The event page highlights fundraising and community aspects while providing race-specific registration pages for each distance.
