Madeley Half Marathon

The Madeley Half Marathon has grown into one of Staffordshire’s most anticipated autumn road races, drawing runners who appreciate a scenic challenge with a friendly, local feel. The event starts and finishes in Madeley village and follows a closed‑road route through the surrounding countryside. The course has quickly earned a reputation for its “legendary” new design, offering wide views, gentle undulations, and a rewarding mix of terrain that suits both newcomers to the half‑marathon distance and experienced club runners looking for a strong seasonal benchmark.
