Discover a series of unique half marathons in Flanders!

What?

New concept: Great Half Series. Are you ready?

 

Are you ready to run faster than ever? To push yourself to the limit on a course that’s truly made for that?

 

With the Great Half Series, we challenge you to a series of top-notch half marathons. Each race features an officially certified 21-km course, designed to be run smoothly and help you achieve your best performance.

Whether you're a seasoned runner or running your very first half marathon, the Great Half Series offers a challenge, speed, and a sense of accomplishment.

 

Good to know: the series won’t be complete until 2027, which means we’ll definitely be adding at least five more races. How exciting!
