HALF BAKED

​HALF BAKED

​Amsterdam's Bakery Half Marathon

​Not every half marathon is about chasing a personal best.

​Half Baked is a curated 21.1 km running experience that brings together movement, exceptional bakeries, and community.

​On Saturday, September 26, 100 runners will explore Amsterdam through a thoughtfully designed route featuring some of the city's best independent bakeries. Along the way, we'll stop to enjoy a curated selection of pastries and baked goods while discovering local neighborhoods and connecting with fellow runners.

​Half Baked isn't about finishing first—it's about enjoying the journey.

​Whether you're running your first half marathon or your fiftieth, this experience is designed for people who appreciate movement, great food, and meaningful connection.

​Pace

​Half Baked is designed as a social running experience rather than a competitive race.

​Participants will run in guided batches led by experienced lead runners, with planned stops at each bakery along the route. During registration, you'll be asked to provide your estimated running pace. We'll use this information to assign you to the batch that best matches your pace, helping ensure an enjoyable experience for everyone.
