Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

Hi,

I am looking to spread my proverbial wings (legs) in 2020 and take part in at least a couple of European Half Marathons. An interesting city to explore in the couple of days i'll have there is equally important as the race itself.

Can any Fetchies recommend some from personal experience, please?

Tallinn, Munich and Budapest are all appealing so far..

Cheers,
Mark

Cyprus Half, Paphos in March is superb. Nice temperatures, good food, cheap flights and cheap hotels. Our apartment £205 for the week.

Amsterdam is very popular. Not done it but heard good things.

Bremen, Reykjavik, Leiden. All are great places to visit and I enjoyed the half marathons. Sarajevo as well but that's a bit harder to get to.

I'm likely somewhat biased, but Brussels is lovely and has a half (as well as full) marathon in October and a 20k in May. I've heard good things about the course, though it does end on an uphill I believe.

Plus, with 't eurostar it's super easy to get to :)
