Haweswater Half Marathon

Sunday March 2nd, 2025…

2025 race date is Sunday 2nd March 2025

Race start is 11:30am. The course starts in Bampton Village and primarily follows an out and back course – all on quiet tarmac roads – along the shores of Haweswater in a remote and dramatic mountain valley. On the day at the finish you will get a unique mug with piping hot tea and a piece of delicious flapjack supplied by Traybakes Ltd of Penrith.

I wish you all the best for your training and I can’t wait to see you all on the start line. Enter before Sunday 12th January 2025 and take advantage of our early bird discount.

As last year, we also have team prizes so you can get two (or more

) team mates to keep you company and car share to the event to make a great day of it.

This year we are proud to be working with the RSPB at Wild Haweswater https://wildhaweswater.co.uk/ giving you the option to donate £2 of your entry fee instead of receiving an official event mug.

Entries for 2025 are now open – see below…

Haweswater Half Sustainability

Eden Runners are proud to be part of England Athletics Greener Clubs initiatives. We are looking at each of our events with consideration to The Green Runners four pillars.

How We (and you) Move: In small rural communities parking can be a squeeze, we actively encourage all our volunteers to car share and we would love you to do the same too. If you’re part of an attending club, we’d love to hear if you plan to bring a bus for your club members. If you cycle, Bampton community pub, The Mardale Inn has cycle stands and new this year, the valley stores has a cycle hub for e-bike charging and minor repairs. Please support the community facilities by popping in, offering a donation or making a purchase.

How We Kit Up: Up north, we like to keep a tight ship. We peg out and collect in all our signage, way markers and event paraphernalia ready for re-use each year. Cups at our water stations are donated by local businesses from past promotions, but you’re welcome to get your soft flask or cup topped up too.

How We Fuel: Our complimentary Traybakes are produced locally in Penrith and we offer vegan and non vegan options. Haweswater half have long championed their finishers mug, perfect to be topped up at the end in the village hall , both even more enjoyable when earnt by running one of the most beautiful half marathons in the world. Alternative charity donations are available in support of RSPB Wild Haweswater.

How We Speak Out: Here we are speaking to you, but we’d also love to hear from all our attending runners on how we can help you make more sustainable choices when you attend our events.
