Four Villages Half Marathon
The Four Villages Half Marathon is an annual road running event held during January in Cheshire, United Kingdom. The race is organised by Helsby Running Club.
The event's course passes through the villages of Dunham on the Hill, Mouldsworth, Manley, Alvanley and Helsby.History
The race was started by staff from BICC, a manufacturing firm located in Helsby since the 1920s. The race was inspired by the first London Marathon, as well as to raise money to send a terminally ill local lad on the trip of a life-time to Disneyland.
The original route was through the four villages of Thornton-le-Moors, Ince, Elton and Helsby. In 1999, the course was changed to its current course.Winners
