The Liverpool Half Marathon is a British annual road running event held on the streets of Liverpool. It has previously been sponsored by Vitality and Mizuno Corporation.

Overview

The course generally starts in the city centre, then goes up Parliament Street and turns south towards Sefton Park and Otterspool before proceeding north along the waterfront back towards the centre.[1]

In 2014, the Liverpool Half Marathon was named as one of the eight events in the Vitality Run Series alongside the Brighton Half Marathon, Reading Half Marathon, Oxford Half Marathon, Bath Half Marathon, North London Half Marathon, Hackney Half Marathon and British 10k London Run.[2]

From 2016 onwards, the event featured a 10-mile race running along a similar route.[3]
