EVENT INFO

 
Standard and VIP Entries have sold out. We do not operate a waiting list, sorry.
 
You can still enter the event by signing up with one of our Official Charities, see all those available here.
 
Or why not put a team together and enter the Business Challenge – details can be found here.
 

 
We’re thrilled to share that every entry will now include the following:
 
• A prestigious, fast, and flat route
• On-course drink stations with nutrition
• An exquisite medal to celebrate your achievements
• A high-quality finisher bag
• Technical finishers T-shirt
 

 
In addition to the standard entry, your VIP entry will give you access to the VIP Marquee on event day. This is heated, has pre and post event food and drinks, post event massage, separate toilets and bag storage. Ahead of the event you will also receive a Cambridge Half Marathon training top.
 
As a VIP, you will have a separate entry line and can start in any wave you like. We will provide guidance on selecting the appropriate wave for your pace – this information will be on display in the VIP tent.
 

 
Volunteers who helped at our 2024 event have been contacted regarding their guaranteed entry link, using the email provided at the time of sign up. These must be used by the stated expiry date to secure your place.
 
If you have not been contacted please let us know at Volunteers.events@teamwass.com so we can help.
 

 
We have lots of charity partners for this event – last year our athletes raised over £600,000 for them. If you would like to race on their behalf, please contact them through the links on the Charity Page. They will be very happy to hear from you!
 
If your charity is not listed, please feel free to enter yourself and raise money for any charity of your choosing. You can create an official Cambridge Half Marathon fundraising page via our partner GivenGain
 

 
17 years old on or before the event date.
 

 
We welcome athletes with disabilities but recommend you get in touch to talk through the suitability of the event if you are unsure. We do not currently have a wheelchair wave (though we are looking at how we can add this for future events) but standard chairs are welcome in the main field.
 

 
Sorry but running with a buggy is not allowed.
 

 
Runners are organised into waves depending on their estimated finish times. The first wave will leave at 9:30 and the final one is anticipated to be up to one hour later. Your personal race time will be recorded by your timing chip when you cross the start and finish.
 

 
Yes, there is. We want to support everyone to have a great race, but we also have limits on how long we can close the roads in Cambridge, so we will stop you if you are going to take longer than 3.5 hours. There will be on course cut-off points that you must reach in time to continue, these will be confirmed in due course.
 

 
Yes. We normally have pacers running at 1hr 30mins, 1hr 45mins, 2hrs, 2hrs 15mins, 2hr 30 mins and 2hr 45 mins. Most will have flags and all will be wearing pacer t-shirts so you can spot them.
 

 
Yes, there will be four drink stations with water, HIGH5 gels and toilets. There will also be water refill points on course and at the event village if you prefer to carry your own reusable bottle.
 

 
There will be a free bag drop available. You can also wear old clothing to stay warm at the start line and discard it into one of the charity bins before you start your race. We donate all this clothing to local charities.
 

 
You will need to choose your finisher t-shirt size when entering the event, so that we can ensure we order the correct sizes for all our athletes.  You can choose between a men’s or women’s depending on which style you prefer and we have a wide range of sizes – check the sizing chart to find the right one for you.   Your chosen size will be indicated on your Race Number and you will be given the size you have selected once you complete the race. As this t-shirt is only for those who finish the race, t-shirts will not be available to any other athletes.
 

 
You can opt out of receiving a finishers t-shirt when completing your entry form, by donating your t-shirt offer to TreesNotTees. TreesNotTees will share the species of tree; the exact location of the tree; even with a picture, so you know exactly how your choice has made a positive environmental impact.
 

 
We have a range of items to complete your TTP Cambridge Half marathon experience including our clothing range from HUUB, personalised mementos such as iTab medal inserts and route maps.  You can access a free two week trial with Coopah, our training partner. You will also be able to purchase race photos after the event.
 

 
Packs can be collected or posted however there is NO race pack collection on the day of the race. If you cannot collect from Midsummer Common on Friday or Saturday before the event, please select postage.
 
When you complete your entry form, you will be offered the option to collect your pack from Midsummer Common BEFORE the event or to have it posted in advance (Postage fees will apply for standard entry tickets).
 
If you live outside of the UK mainland (including Channel Islands, Isle of Man and Northern Ireland) we are unable to post your race pack as we cannot guarantee that it will reach you in time. Please either provide an address on the mainland or make arrangements to collect on the Friday or Saturday.
 

 
The Event Village and start line is on Midsummer Common, Victoria Avenue, Cambridge, CB4 1HA. If you live in or choose to stay in central Cambridge, you can walk or jog to the start. We also have a free secure bike park on site for up to 1,000 bikes.
 
If you are driving to the event, we have a special Event Park and Ride service which runs earlier than normal and has drop off and collect points very close to the Event Village. You can book this in advance when completing your race entry. Please note – tickets are required for each passenger (children under 5 travel free, sorry no concessions available). This service sells out each year so we recommend booking in advance. Tickets for Park & Ride are currently £6 per person – prices will increase as the event approaches.
 
We are using 7 sites around the city, check the maps to see which site is best for you.  We use the Park & Ride sites at St Ives & Longstanton, which both come in along the guided busway express route.  We also use Cambridge Park & Ride sites at Babraham Road, Milton, Trumpington, Newmarket Road and Madingley Road.   Please note – our event service begins running earlier than the normal schedule that is advertised.
 

 
There are several reasons that athletes may not receive our emails.  We recommend that you check your junk folder as they can often get hidden in there. Please add us to your safe senders to stop this happening again.
 
If you do not receive a confirmation email from Let’s Do This you may have mistyped your email address when you entered. This will prevent us from sending you emails too.
 
If you unsubscribe from our emails, or one bounces, this stops emails being sent. We can resubscribe you if you email us with permission.
 

 
We understand that sometimes plans change and you may no longer be able to race.
When making your entry through Let’s Do This, you will be offered the opportunity to protect your full entry fee with Refund Protect for an additional cost.
