Recurring Half Marathon races near Apeldoorn
Races that repeat — weekly, monthly or yearly
Isoniq Urk Marathon
The Isoniq Urk Marathon begins and ends at the harbor in Urk. Runners depart beside the IJsselmeer during autumn. This road race offers a full marathon and a half marathon. The full marathon is presented as Flevoland’s sole marathon. The course is paved, certified, and designed for speed, not trail running.
The route follows Urk’s historic boulevard toward the dike, then consists of repeated laps: four for the marathon and two for the half. Loopgroep Urk, affiliated with Atletiekunie, organizes the event. Entry limits are 500 marathon runners and 200 half marathon runners, making it a focused local race instead of a large city marathon.
Leersumse Veld Trail
The Leersumse Veld Trail begins near Molecaten Park Landgoed Ginkelduin in Leersum, Netherlands, and takes place on the Utrechtse Heuvelrug during autumn. It is a trail race offering 11 km and 21 km distances, though the shorter option has been noted to be closer to 12 km. Both distances commence and conclude at the same point, with the race confined to natural landscapes managed by Staatsbosbeheer and Recreatiepark De Ginkel Duin.
The initial loop guides all participants through the Leersumse Veld, incorporating narrow trails, sandy sections, woodland paths, and sufficient elevation changes to distinguish it from a simple flat run. The shorter course features aid stations around the 7 km and 11 km marks before returning via sandy terrain to the finish. The longer course includes a second loop extending towards the Amerongse Bossen. Course designer Chris van Beem, who frequently runs between De Ginkel and the Leersumse Veld, ranks this route among his personal favorites.
Let's Go Running - N70 Trail
Let's Go Running - N70 Trail is a monthly social trail run starting from the De Holdeurn parking lot in Berg en Dal, close to restaurant De Duivelsberg. Runners head into the N70 area for a relaxed run through nature reserves, featuring significant climbing but no set distance or elevation. The cost is €12.50, with a discount for Let's Go Running coachees.
The run consists of two loops, bringing runners back past their vehicles at the halfway point. The car trunks serve as an informal aid station for refreshments. Pace groups form around 6:00 per kilometer, emphasizing a shared outing over intense competition. A few days prior, participants get route details and a GPX file via email, and a post-run gathering at a local cafe is common.
De Jong & Laan Halve Marathon Oldenzaal
The De Jong & Laan Halve Marathon Oldenzaal is an autumn running event held annually in Oldenzaal, Overijssel. The half marathon is the primary race, complemented by 10 km, 5 km, and youth 1 km and 2 km races. A business run and a school championship are also part of the event, broadening participation beyond just half-marathon competitors. Early registrants receive their start numbers by mail, while later entrants pick theirs up at the venue.
During the LAAC Twente era, the race was known as the Halve van LAAC and utilized the outskirts of Oldenzaal. As development encroached on that area, organizers relocated the course towards Weerselo, eventually introducing a new route and the name Huttenkloasloop. That iteration guided participants through the scenic, undulating countryside surrounding Oldenzaal, bearing the motto “Not the fastest, but the most beautiful!” The event is now named Halve Marathon Oldenzaal, retaining the same route, and is managed by Stichting Halve Marathon Oldenzaal. De Jong & Laan serves as the main sponsor, and the event contributes to Kans voor een kind.

TCS Amsterdam Marathon
The TCS Amsterdam Marathon is an October race weekend in Amsterdam with a full marathon as the main event, plus a half marathon and a 7.5K. The marathon starts and finishes inside the Olympic Stadium, which gives the day a very specific feel: thousands of runners begin either on the stadium field or nearby on Stadionweg, then return to finish back in the arena. It is a World Athletics Platinum Label race, and the course is flat and fast enough to draw runners chasing quick times as well as people who want a big-city marathon with a clear six-hour limit.
The route sends runners through Amsterdam and along the Amstel, using part of the old Olympic marathon course without turning the race into a city-center loop only. That stretch passes stately houses, windmills, open views, and working river traffic before the course comes back close to the center. Start waves are sorted by expected finish time, with bib colors matching wave colors, so the large field is managed in a fairly structured way.
TCS Amsterdam Marathon 2026
Runners begin and end inside Amsterdam’s historic Olympic Stadium, connecting the TCS Amsterdam Marathon to the city’s Olympic history. This annual road race in Amsterdam features the TCS Marathon as its primary distance. The course is flat and fast, appealing to participants seeking swift times and a major city race atmosphere.
The marathon course traces a section of the 1928 Olympic Games route along the Amstel River. It passes notable sights such as stately homes, windmills, the Rijksmuseum underpass, and the Heineken Experience, before looping through Vondelpark. The broader race weekend covers a half marathon, a 7.5 KM race, a Kids Run, a Heroes Run, Mini Marathons, and a Good Morning City Run. Additionally, there is a Marathon Expo, Pasta Party, a Business Run option, a charity program, and volunteer assistance coordinated by Le Champion.
Salland Zorgverzekeringen & Flynth Diepe Hel Holterbergloop
The Diepe Hel Holterbergloop guides runners and walkers up the Holterberg from Holten, Netherlands. This annual late-October event includes road running, walking, a Kidsrun, a Heroesloop, business categories, and main race distances of 6 km, 10 km, and a half marathon. The official title incorporates sponsors Salland Zorgverzekeringen and Flynth, with the organization affiliated with the Atletiekunie.
Saturday evening features a 6 km Nightrun and Nightwalk on an illuminated course; glow-in-the-dark outfits are encouraged. Sunday hosts the 10 km, half marathon, longer walks, and children’s events. The routes traverse the Sallandse Heuvelrug, utilizing rolling terrain, forest, and heathland instead of a flat city course. Thousands participate in the Holterberg challenge, with entries limited to 5,000 and no late registration, maintaining a local, organized atmosphere.
41e BAX Halve Marathon van Doetinchem
The BAX Halve Marathon van Doetinchem begins on the recently renewed athletics track in Doetinchem, featuring five race distances from 1 km up to the half marathon. Participants can select from the 21.1 km half marathon, 15 km, 7.5 km, 2.5 km, or 1 km. This variety accommodates adults, youth runners, business teams, and adapted-sport participants. The event is affiliated with the Atletiekunie and has a participant cap of 1,500.
All distances follow routes through De Slangenburg, the nature reserve near Doetinchem, instead of solely using town streets. The shorter races make the event accessible for children and newer runners, while the 15 km and half marathon provide experienced runners with a longer route starting from the same athletics venue. This race marks its 41st edition and includes practical race-day facilities such as public transport access, parking, changing rooms, showers, first aid, and AEDs.
Gooi Half Marathon
The Gooi Half Marathon debuts in the Dutch region of Het Gooi, starting and finishing at Het Arsenaal in the fortified town of Naarden Vesting. Scheduled for November, it includes more than just a half marathon: participants can opt for a quarter marathon or a kids run, and a walking tour is also available. The event originated from organizer Mees Kremer's relocation to Naarden and his appreciation for the local forests, heath, river landscape, and historic surroundings.
The half marathon course highlights well-known locations near Naarden, such as Muiderberg, the Naardermeer, and Valkeveen. The majority of the route is paved, with some forest path segments, meaning trail shoes are unnecessary. Kremer is organizing the event with Tempo AV from Bussum, receiving support from the municipality of Gooise Meren. The race is being developed as a community day for Naarden, Bussum, and neighboring villages, utilizing traffic-calmed roads and minimizing road closure times at intersections.
Dorpsrun Renswoude
The Dorpsrun Renswoude begins and ends at the parking lot of sports park de Hokhorst in Renswoude. This annual village road race offers distances for children and adults: a 1,000-meter Kidsrun, 5 km, 10.5 km, and a half marathon. The Kidsrun separates young runners into 4-9 and 10-12 age categories. The longer distances allow local runners, club runners, and visitors to choose between a shorter village race and a full 21.1 km run.
The shortest route runs from De Hokhorst along Dickerijstlaantje and returns. The 5 km route incorporates De Hokhorst and Ubbeschoterweg. Now in its 40th edition, the event is an established fixture. Entries are capped at approximately 650 to 700 runners, and recent editions have sold out before race day. A substantial volunteer team manages the event, with local businesses also providing support, giving it the character of a community gathering for runners, families, friends, colleagues, and neighbors.
Vestingstadrun Woudrichem
The Vestingstadrun Woudrichem is an annual road race held in and around Woudrichem, a historic fortress town in North Brabant, Netherlands. Taking place in November, it is organized by Altena Road Runners, with the start located at their club building, De Inloper, in Sleeuwijk. The event offers various distances, from youth races to a half marathon, attracting participants from children and beginners to club runners aiming for personal bests.
The half marathon, which lends the event its name, spans 21.1 kilometers through parts of the Altena municipality and the historic fortified center of Woudrichem. The course also extends into the countryside surrounding Woudrichem and Sleeuwijk, offering views of the Maas river and local natural areas. Shorter races of 5 and 10 kilometers are also featured, alongside competitive age-category events. The Vestingstadrun is part of the Altena Road Circuit, which the organizers state is the oldest running circuit in the Netherlands, and this year marks its 25th edition.

About Half Marathon races in Apeldoorn
Apeldoorn Training Notes
Apeldoorn hosts 46 Half Marathon races in 2026 within 80 km of the city centre — upcoming dates, recurring series, and other races nearby, all in one place.
Locals run west when they want forest legs and quiet Z2. The 10 km Kroondomeinen route starts in Wiesel and gives you unpaved paths without much fuss. The Oranjepark and Paleis Het Loo route also runs 10 km and keeps things closer to town. AV '34 trains from Sportlaan 19, and Running Movements Apeldoorn goes on Wednesdays and Fridays from 19:30 to 21:00 and Sundays at 9:30. Dennis Licht calls Kroondomein Het Loo his regular ground. Midwinter Marathon Apeldoorn is the anchor event, with Acht van Apeldoorn and Asselronde close behind.
Locals ride the Veluwe side for texture and the IJssel side for flatter base miles. The Cycle route Crafts around Apeldoorn runs 44 km, the Geldersche Castles Route runs 68 km, and Versatile Veluwe runs 38 km. Gravel riders start from Giant Store Van Hest on Arnhemseweg and choose Kroondomein loops of 55 km, 76 km, or 96 km. Omnisport Apeldoorn gives the bike scene its big indoor marker. Ronde van Ugchelen is the local race name to know. Koningsweg, Miggelenberg, Woeste Hoeve, and Trapjesberg give the climbs, with Trapjesberg hitting a max of 8%.
February belongs to Midwinter Marathon Apeldoorn, and locals treat it like the winter anchor. June brings Randerode Zomercross, with showers and changing rooms at Atletiekbaan Orderbos, and the course has no leaves to clear. September gives Baanloop legs, October gives Spelderholtloop rhythm, and December closes hard with Wisent Winter Trail on December 31st. Summer makes the forest paths, heath, drifting sands, and gravel roads feel fast and open. Winter shifts both sports toward mud, cyclocross habits, steady intervals, and routes outside Kroondomein when it closes from September 15th to December 25th.
