Eden Project Marathon & Half Marathon

Cornwall’s biggest running event, the Eden Marathon and Half-Marathon, returns on Sunday 20 October 2024, with a multi-terrain route through spectacular countryside.

Early Bird entries are now open!

A firm fixture in the running calendar, the Eden Project Marathon and Half-Marathon offers hilly multi-terrain courses around the famous site, following a challenging route through areas of spectacular mining heritage and beautiful countryside landscapes.

Here are just a few reasons why we think you’ll love the event:

• All runners get a pasty and a beer at the finish line – where else but Cornwall?!
• All finishers get a themed medal to take home
• Entrants and accompanying family, friends and supporters receive free entry to the Eden Project on the day
• There’ll be water stations every three miles and isotonic drinks every seven miles to fuel up!
• Chip timing and free online analysis of your race will be available post-event via RunPix
• There are cash prizes for race winners and prizes for category winners
• You’ll be supporting the creation of wildflower habitats here at Eden to help wildlife and pollinators thrive. This is our alternative to providing race t-shirts, as hundreds of them are not collected or not worn after events every year nationwide. If you would still like a souvenir t-shirt, you’ll be able to purchase one through our sustainable, print-on-demand partners – more information will be available soon.
