Half Marathon Distances

A half marathon is a long-distance running event that spans 13.1 miles, or approximately 21.1 kilometers. It represents half the distance of a full marathon, which is 26.2 miles. Half marathons are popular among both amateur and seasoned runners as they present a challenging yet achievable goal without the extensive training required for a full marathon. They often take place on roads or trails and can be part of larger running festivals. Completing a half marathon is a significant achievement that tests endurance, pacing, and overall fitness.
