Oxford Half Marathon 2015
Sunday 11 October 2015
Join this 13.1 mile half marathon - the fresh, all new Vitality Oxford Half Marathon around the city of the dreaming spires and raise funds for Play2Give.
This is the perfect motivation to challenge yourself and get in shape for 2015. Registrations are now open
Last year two fantastic supporters of Play2Give, Stuart Crook and Matthew Crook, both Oxford brothers, ran the gruelling 13.1 miles across Oxford's most iconic sites, including the Thames path, the BMW MINI factory and the dreaming spires itself. The atmosphere was buzzing as thousands of people lined up at the Kassam Stadium (home of Oxford United), waiting for Sir Roger Bannister to sound the starting horn.

Matt and Stuart Crook ran in 2014 in Play2Give's name to support the Children's Hospital
Between them Stuart and Matt raised £680 for Oxford Children's Hospital inspired by Play2Give, and were joined by cheerleaders along the way and wore brilliant blue running tees (supplied by our friends at Elmer Cotton sports shop in the city centre).
Famed for its university and stunning architecture, the city of Oxford will once again open its streets to thousands of runners taking on this mighty challenge. Every finisher will receive a Brooks finishers technical t-shirt, as a souvenir.
This year's route starts on St Giles and takes in the Radcliffe Camera, Bodleian Library and many of the University colleges.
