Related race guides
Running race types
Terrain, scenery, atmosphere and elevation guides that clear the source-backed character guardrail.
All Half Marathons
Every indexed half marathon race page, including races without this character tag.
Half Marathon route maps
Mapped half marathon race pages with stored route geometry where available.
Mountain half marathon route maps
86 mapped race pages with this scenery evidence.
Why this page is source-backed
Race-character guide pages publish only when enough race pages have a controlled-vocabulary character tag, verified facts and stored race-character source fact ids. The guide does not infer terrain, scenery, atmosphere or elevation character from a race name alone.
Mountain half marathons questions
What mountain half marathons are included?
This guide includes 175 half marathon race pages with source-backed scenery evidence for mountain.
Do all mountain half marathons have route maps?
No. 86 currently have stored route geometry and 50 have elevation profiles. Race pages without stored geometry show route-review status instead.
Why are some half marathon races missing from this guide?
A race appears only when its race-character row is backed by verified source facts and the guide has enough qualifying race pages to avoid a thin page.
