GENERAL PUBLIC ENTRIES FOR THE 2011 BATH HALF MARATHON ARE NOW OPEN
Now in its 30th Year, the Bath Half Marathon is one of the longest established and most popular city centre road events in the UK. It is also one of the largest (if not the largest) charity fundraisers in the South West, raising over £1.3 million for charity last year alone. The course itself is fast and flat making it suitable for all abilities – for beginners whose key objective is to complete the course, to more regular long-distance runners looking to beat their personal best time. It covers a two-lap 13.1 mile (21.1km) traffic-free course straddling both sides of the River Avon, with a configuration that ensures crowd support and excellent opportunities for spectators to watch the runners at a number of locations around the course. Both the 'Bath Half' and the Family Fun Run start and finish in Great Pulteney Street, in the heart of the World Heritage City of Bath |
