The Watchtree Half Marathon follows quiet, undulating country lanes around Watchtree Nature Reserve in Carlisle. Runners cover 13.1 miles on road, with gentle inclines rather than steep climbs and about 110 metres of total ascent. The course is well-marshalled and has water stations along the way, and an event village is part of the day. Finishers receive a medal. The event is open to runners aged 17 and over and is part of the wider Watchtree running series.
