Course & Elevation
The CPH Half, or Copenhagen Half Marathon, is a September half marathon through Copenhagen and Frederiksberg, first run in 2015. Sparta Atletik & Løb organises it, and it is part of the SuperHalfs series. The 2027 race is on Sunday 19 September, starting at 09:30 on Jagtvej in Østerbro. The organisers have set 45,000 places for 2027, and the places are allocated by lottery: a record 188,522 runners entered it. In 2026 the half marathon was held as part of the World Athletics Road Running Championships in Copenhagen, on Sunday 20 September. The organisers describe the route as fast, and the race has produced records. Geoffrey Kamworor's 58:01 in 2019 is the men's race record, and Likina Amebaw's 1:04:44 in 2025 is the women's. In 2025 a record 32,000 runners took part in the 10th edition.
