On 15 March 2026, the Cheshire Spring Half Marathon returns as a flat and fast country road race based at the Cheshire County Showground near Knutsford. The 21.1 km course starts and finishes at the showground, following rural, road-closed lanes around villages such as Pickmere and Arley Green, with smooth tarmac, long straights and only gentle elevation change — ideal for chasing a PB or stepping up to the half distance with confidence. Runners enjoy chip timing, a unique themed medal, free race photos and post-race goodies, alongside a friendly race-village atmosphere. With its accessible profile, countryside scenery and well-organised logistics, it’s become a popular spring target for both club runners and newer half marathoners across the North West.
