PHOENIX - Denbies Marathon & Half Marathon 2027

The Denbies Marathon & Half Marathon returns for its 2027 edition, offering runners unparalleled flexibility. Spanning from Saturday, June 19th at 8:00 AM to Sunday, June 20th at 2:00 PM, participants have up to 30 hours to complete the marathon or half-marathon distance. This generous time frame makes it an ideal choice for first-time runners looking to tackle these distances without pressure.
The event's unique selling point is its flexible start times, ranging from early morning on Saturday until late Sunday morning. Runners can choose their preferred starting hour and even opt for a night run by beginning as late as 11:00 PM on Saturday. For those seeking an extra challenge or simply wanting to experience different conditions, multiple entries are allowed within the designated start window.
The course itself is designed around Denbies Wine Estate's picturesque trails in Surrey, UK. Each lap covers approximately one mile with slight inclines and cambers that add a bit of variety without making it overly challenging for runners at any level. Participants can complete as many laps as they need to reach their desired distance, whether that’s the full marathon or half-marathon.
All participants will receive chip timing, ensuring accurate tracking throughout the race regardless of how many laps are completed. Aid stations along the route provide essential support and hydration, allowing runners to focus on pacing themselves over this extended period.
With limited spots available, early entry is recommended for those looking to secure a place in what promises to be an unforgettable endurance event amidst stunning vineyard scenery.
