The Stur Half, organised by the Dorset Doddlers is a road race which has been running since 1990.  The route follows rural roads in and  around Sturminster Newton.

The race is sponsored by Honeybuns Bakery and supported by other local businesses. This year is part of the Dorset Road Race League and is also the 2025 Dorset Half Marathon Championship event

There is also a multi-terrain 5k race, which you can enter on the day, and while you are running we will entertain the children with races on the school field.

Whether you are a returning runner or new to the Stur Half, The Dorset Doddlers look forward to welcoming you on Sunday 3rd August 2025.

NOTE: We’ve marked this event as all day. Please check the official site for actual times.
