Recurring Half Marathon races near Grimsby
Races that repeat — weekly, monthly or yearly
Lincoln Half Marathon
The Lincoln Half Marathon is a 13.1-mile road race in Lincoln, starting at 9:30 am from the Lincolnshire Showground, postcode LN2 2NA. Run For All organises the event, and the race is open to runners of all abilities, not just club or fast runners.
The route leaves the showground and heads into the heart of Lincoln, passing Lincoln Castle and Lincoln Cathedral. The event supports Lincoln City Foundation, which works across Lincolnshire on physical, social, and mental wellbeing. Fundraisers can earn a free place by raising at least £100, receive a branded running top, and get two Lincoln City match tickets if they raise £250.
Worksop Halloween Half Marathon
The Worksop Halloween Half Marathon is an autumn half marathon organized by Worksop Harriers, set against the backdrop of Worksop’s proximity to Sherwood Forest. It is a long-standing local event, not just a simple road race, and its Halloween theme adds a festive atmosphere, with participants encouraged to wear costumes.
The course winds through Sherwood Forest and Clumber Park on a familiar route. A running magazine recognized it as one of the UK’s top 10 half marathons. The blend of club runners, local participants, and costumed runners distinguishes it from a typical autumn half marathon.
Gainsborough 10k & Half Marathon November 2026
The Gainsborough 10k & Half Marathon is a November road-running event based at Sturgate Airfield near Gainsborough in Lincolnshire. The half marathon starts first in the morning, with the 10K setting off shortly after, so runners can choose between a shorter race and a full half marathon on the same day. Both races use road-closed, single-lap routes on flat roads, which makes the event straightforward for first-timers and useful for runners chasing an even pace.
The route leaves the airfield for quiet country roads, then passes open farmland and village stretches before coming back to a village finish. Every kilometre is marked with distance flags, and marshals are posted around the course to guide runners and cheer them in. Entry includes chip timing, free race photos, post-race goodies, and a themed medal, so the setup feels practical without being overcomplicated.
Gainsborough Morton 10k & Half Marathon November 2026
Vigilantes Cleethorpes Maravan
Vigilantes Cleethorpes Marathon is a low-key running weekend held at Haven Holidays Cleethorpes Beach holiday park in Humberston, at the eastern end of Cleethorpes. It takes place over a November weekend, featuring full marathons on both days with a mass start at 9am, and an option to start early. Relay teams participate in the Saturday marathon, and a multi-terrain half marathon runs concurrently with the marathon on both days.
The marathon route follows flat, quiet, lapped roads within the out-of-season holiday park, experiencing minimal traffic and offering generous cut-offs. An aid station is positioned approximately every 3.7 miles, set up like picnic tables rather than a sports lab. Offerings include water, cola, crisps, nuts, cake, and Darren’s wife’s brownie, with many vegan brownies available. Participants receive a bespoke medal, a goody bag containing crisps, chocolate, and drinks, and beer is available at the event. Free parking is provided on the caravan park. Rail travel requires planning as Sunday trains do not arrive in time for the race start.
Le York 1.5k, 5k, 10k & Semi-Marathon MoRun
Tibthorpe Loop
The Tibthorpe Loop begins and ends at Field House Camping & Coffee Barn, located near Tibthorpe in East Yorkshire. The race commences at 10:00 am. This event is a winter trail half marathon crossing the Yorkshire Wolds, featuring an undulating course designed to be easy to navigate rather than technically demanding underfoot.
Participants are provided with GPX files, waymarking, and prominent yellow correx signs at crucial intersections, ensuring navigation is a planned element of the event. The race employs chip timing, offers medical support, and features one checkpoint supplying vegan and gluten-free options. A five-hour overall time limit, without intermediate checkpoint cut-offs, accommodates both slower-paced runners and those aiming for a fast half marathon. All finishers will receive a wildflower seed medal. Additionally, each registration contributes to planting one tree and includes a £3 donation to charity.
North Lincolnshire Half Marathon & 10K
The North Lincolnshire Half Marathon & 10K starts and finishes on the track at Quibell Park Stadium in Scunthorpe. This is a closed-road running event offering two choices: a half marathon and a 10K, both designed as flat, fast single-lap routes. The 10K begins first, with the half marathon following shortly after, and the event is structured for an early conclusion. The course layout is suitable for those running their first race, and also for individuals aiming for a new personal best.
Both races depart the stadium and proceed onto roads through the Lincolnshire countryside before returning to Quibell Park. Each kilometre is marked with distance flags, and results are chip timed, allowing runners to monitor their pace accurately. The North Lincolnshire half marathon was the inaugural race organised by its directors, commencing in 2012. Entry includes a themed medal, complimentary race photos, and post-race refreshments, with marshals stationed along the route to direct runners back to the finish.
North Lincolnshire Half Marathon & 10k March 2027
The North Lincolnshire Half Marathon & 10k begins and ends at Quibell Park Stadium in Scunthorpe. This is a flat, fast, road-closed running event taking place in March. Participants can choose single-lap courses of 10k or the half marathon distance. The 10k begins first, with the half marathon starting thirty minutes later.
The routes head out through the Lincolnshire countryside on closed roads. Kilometer flags and marshals will guide runners along the course. The event is suitable for first-time runners seeking a simple road race. It also offers PB chasers a quick course, complete with chip timing, complimentary race photos, post-race treats, and a themed medal at the finish.
Doncaster Half Marathon
The Doncaster Half Marathon returned to the town in 2019 after a 20-year absence, re-establishing an on-road event for the community. Runners can expect a route with good facilities, culminating in a stadium finish. This "world class" finish provides a memorable conclusion to the race.

About Half Marathon races in Grimsby
Grimsby Base Miles By The Water
Grimsby hosts 18 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 keep running simple in Grimsby. The main loop is 207 km with 9m ascent, so it works for easy Z2 laps or tidy intervals. The 1km Freshney route follows a local line near the River Freshney and gives 16m ascent. The 447 km route with 9m ascent works when they want repeats without drama. Great Grimsby 10k is the anchor event, with GRIMSBY 10K close by in the same local race orbit. Fireworks 5km, Wind in the Pillows Marathons & Half marathon, and Great Grimsby Fun Run keep the calendar busy.
Grimsby riders get a proper coastal mix. Routes cover 2 km across the seafront, River Freshney, Great Coates, Laceby, Waltham, and New Waltham. Lindsey Roads Cycling Club has been at it since October 1970, with year-round rides and evening time trials at 7 pm. Cleethorpes Bandstand Criterium is the local crit name to know. Cleethorpes Century road route gives riders 96 km with 390m ascent and reaches Nettleton Hill. Wolds Loop gives climbers 107 km with 651m ascent, while the Hilly TT starts south of Swallow on the Cuxwold road.
April to August suits riders who want numbers, because Lindsey Roads Cycling Club runs its time trials then. March and September bring reliability trials, so cyclists still get structure either side of summer. Summer gives runners bright evenings for People's Park Loop, Freshney River Route, 5km Round Willows, and the 10 Mile Training Route. Winter pushes both sports toward base miles, steady Z2, and routes that stay modest rather than heroic. Year-round weekly rides keep the bike scene moving. Locals still run the flat park and river options when the colder months make intervals feel less friendly.
