The Butterfield Half Marathon, set to take place on Sunday, September 20th, 2026, offers runners an unforgettable experience along the stunning coastline of Guernsey. This picturesque Channel Island race begins at L'Eree, located in the island's southwest corner, and follows a breathtakingly flat coastal route for a total distance of 13.1 miles. As participants make their way through this scenic course, they'll be treated to panoramic views of the seafront as well as charming seaside towns before reaching the finish line in St Peter Port. Upon completing the race, runners will have several options to commemorate their achievement: receiving a commemorative medal or choosing from free souvenir running t-shirts and vests available for pre-order during registration. This year, athletes also have the opportunity to contribute to Butterfield Half Marathon's chosen charity by opting out of the t-shirt or vest option. For each item not selected, an equivalent donation will be made on behalf of all participants who choose this route, fostering a sense of community and giving back while enjoying the race. Registration for the event is open until Tuesday, June 30th, with entries after that date not guaranteed to receive t-shirts or vests due to limited availability. It's important for runners aged 17 years or older on September 20th, 2026, to secure their spot early and ensure they have all the necessary information from the registration page. The Butterfield Half Marathon is fully UKA licensed with a certified course and will be held under strict UKA rules.

This event promises not only a challenging yet smooth-running experience but also an opportunity to immerse oneself in the beauty of Guernsey's coastline while supporting a worthy cause.
