Race Info
The Chelmsford Half Marathon starts and finishes in Central Park, Chelmsford, on the same morning as the marathon. Runners share the marathon's opening route through West Park and past Writtle University toward Roxwell, then turn back for Central Park just past the six-mile mark, while the marathon continues on into the Essex countryside. The out-and-back course runs on quiet, undulating country lanes through the Writtle and Roxwell area.
