Marlow Half Marathon, The Frankenstein & Marlow 7

The Marlow Half Marathon, The Frankenstein & Marlow 7 on 1 November 2026 is a popular annual charity event organised by the Marlow Striders.

Held in the beautiful, Thames-side town of Marlow on quiet country lanes in the scenic Chiltern Hills, this is an area of outstanding natural beauty.

The Marlow Half Marathon is a challenging, but beautiful course and its sister event, the Marlow 7 Mile, although shorter, is also quite testing. Both are circular courses, that are fully signed and marshalled, with mile markers.

The Frankenstein is a multi-terrain event, approximately 10km with one third on road and two thirds on trails – named in honour of Mary Shelley’s novel “Frankenstein” which she completed whilst living in Marlow.
