and Half Marathon\nClarendon Marathon and Half Marathon; Salisbury to Winchester: Running or Walking \nOverview: \nIf you are looking for a marathon which is off road\, picturesque and challenging then running the Clarendon is the ultimate. Our route takes you from Salisbury to Winchester along the ancient Clarendon Way with a few extra turns here and there to make up a full 26.2 miles. More than 90% is off road\, with the trail following country tracks and paths – many of which have not changed since being travelled by the ancient Kings and Queens of England. \nIn addition to the full marathon distance\, we also have a half marathon event and this year we are also introducing a mini run of just 5 miles. If you want to join us but are not able to run the full course\, please feel welcome to get a team of 4 together and run in a relay or enter the mini and run in with us for the last 5 miles. \nOur marathon event was first run in 1998. It was founded and organised by Paul Elderkin\, a keen runner and member of a local Hash House Harriers Club. In 2012\, Paul passed the management of the race over to the Rotary Clubs of Winchester and Salisbury. \nThe entry fee for 2017 is an inclusive one. All entrants will be given a free medal and a free tshirt when they cross the finish line. Use of the buses will also be included.\nEarly bird prices for bookings before 1 June are: \n£30 for the full marathon (26.2 miles). £35 after 1 June.\n£22 for the half marathon (13.1 miles). £25 after 1 June.\n£20 for the mini (5 miles). £20 after 1 June.\n£70 for a 4 person relay team. £80 after 1 June.\nOnline entries close on Tuesday 19 September. It will be possible for runners to book on the day but an additional late fee of £10 (donation to Rotary charities) will be requested. \nClarendon coffee mugs are available for £5 each. \nA massage after the run will cost £7. \nIf you wish to use the event as an opportunity to raise funds for your favourite charity\, all the money that you raise can be put directly to your charity (100%). \nYour early bookings are much appreciated as this helps us when we are forecasting how many tshirts and medals to order and lots of other things. Please book as early as possible. \nClick here to go to the registration page \nEvent Info \nThe Clarendon Way Marathon (Laverstock/Salisbury to Winchester) – starting at 10:30am (earlier start of 8:00hrs for walkers and 9:30hrs for very slow runners). Cost £30.00.\nThe Clarendon Way Half Marathon (Broughton to Winchester) – starting at 12:15pm (earlier start of 11.45am for walkers). Cost £22.00.\nThe Clarendon Way Relay x4 Marathon (Laverstok/Salisbury to Winchester) – starting at 10:30am. Cost £70.00.\nThe Clarendon Mini (last 5 miles only. Farley Mount Country Park to Winchester) – starting at 1.45pm. Cost £20.00.\nFull Marathon \nThe Full Marathon starts from Wyvern College\, Laverstock\, Salisbury (SP1 1RE). The run mainly follows the Clarendon Way setting off through the Clarendon Estate and then on through the villages of Pitton\, Winterslow and Broughton. Broughton is the midway point where the Half Marathon runners join the course. From here the route takes you through to Houghton and then across the River Test to Kings Somborne\, then on up to Farley Mount\, down through the woods and eventually on to the finish at Kings’ School\, Winchester (SO22 5PN). The route is mostly off-road\, is tough and challenging but possibly one of the most scenic races you’ll ever enter. \nRegistration is open from 7.30am. Runners should allow plenty of time to pick up their race numbers. \nThe full marathon starts at 10:30am. Marathon runners should aim to reach the half marathon start point in Broughton in less than 2hrs 45mins i.e. by 13:15pm. \nThere is also an option to make an early start at Wyvern School at 8:00am or 9:30am (instead of 10:30am) if you are planning to walk the route or jog very slowly (please let us know when you book if you require an early start). Participants can only take the early start time if they are very slow and anticipate arriving at Winchester after 3:00pm but no later than 4:00pm. Participants taking the 9:30 start should only do so if they are likely to need more than 5 hours to complete the course. There are no prizes applicable for early starters. If you are a fast runner please do not take the early start as the marshals and the various support teams will not be in place. \nBuses are available pre-race and post-race depending on your requirements however please note that there are no pre-race buses available for the early starters. Early starters will need to transport themselves to Laverstoke\, run the course to Winchester\, then take the post-race bus. \nThe first runners are expected to arrive at the finish line at Kings School in Winchester at approx 1:15pm. We hope that all the runners (and strollers and walkers) will complete the course by 4.00pm at the very latest. \nRelay marathon (x4)\nThe Relay Marathon follows the same course as the full marathon. It comprises a four-stage relay\, each leg being an average of 6.5 miles in length but they are not equal lengths. The first leg is approx 10.5km\, second leg is 10.4km\, third leg is longest at 12.3km and the fourth leg is the shortest at 9.0 km. The third leg is the most challenging as\, in addition to being longer in distance\, it also has a greater hill climb in height. The fourth leg is the easiest as it is the shortest and some of it is down hill. The relay marathon starts at 10.30am. \nTeams are usually mixed sex (usually 3 males and one female) but we are also encouraging all male and all female teams. There is a prize for the first mixed team\, first male team and first female team. \nRegistration is open from 8.00. Runners should allow plenty of time to pick up their race numbers and their team batton (wrist band). This is to be passed on to the next runner at each transition point. \nThe relay change over points are as follows (click for maps): \nStart from Wyvern College\, Salisbury – SP1 1RE \nThe first changeover is in Middle Winterslow at the Sports Ground at OS Grid ref SU 237 329\, (SP5 1RD).\nThe second changeover is at Broughton\, Rectory Lane OS Grid ref SU 308330\, (SO20 8AB) Please note\, this is not the start point for the half marathon. \nThe third changeover is at Farley Mount Country Park car park (closest car park to the monument) OS Grid ref SU 407 293\nThe finish is at the Kings’ School in Winchester. OS Grid ref SU 458 291\, (SO22 5PN). \nTo help reduce road traffic congestion in the Middle Winterslow area can we ask all support personel to please enter via the A30\, Firs Road\, The St\, The Plantation\, The Sports Ground. When leaving\, please do not exit by going further into Winterslow along Middleton. \nInstead please exit by reversing your journey back along The Plantation\, The St and then up to the A30. Once you are on the A30 you will be able to travel east and then take the B3084 down into Broughton. \n Half marathon\nThe Half Marathon starts at 12:15pm at the village hall in Broughton (SO20 8AX)\, and continues along the marathon course to finish at Kings’ School in Winchester. There is also an earlier start time for walkers only at 11.45am. \nRegistration opens at 11.00. Runners should allow plenty of time to pick up their race numbers. \nMini (the last 5 miles only)\nThe mini start location is on the main trail in the middle of Farley Mount Country Park (Grid Ref SU417294). Participants in the ‘Mini’ will have the opportunity to chear the early runners and then join the main pack an hour later. The first runners from the main event are expected to be passing through this location from 12:45pm. \nThe bus from Winchester carrying the mini runners will arrive at about 1.00pm and the mini runners will be able to watch some of the marathon runners going through. The mini will then set off at 1.45pm. \nSee bus time table section for more detailed infomation http://www.clarendon-marathon.co.uk/more-info \nKids Race (free)\nWe will hold a fun race for young children who are waiting with their parents at Kings School Winchester. This will be a very informal event\, it is free and you do not need to pre-book. We are planning to set the children off at approx 12.30 for a short race within the school grounds. All the participants will be finished in plenty of time to see the marathon runners who will be arriving from about 13:15 onwards. \nCut off times\nIf on the day you find you are running very slowly\, you may be directed by a marshal to leave the course and accept a lift to Winchester. We have a large number of marshals along the route and it is not fair to keep them out on the course for an extended period. To be allowed to stay in the race you must make it to the drinks stations by the required times. Please see these times listed below. Please note that if you are a slow runner you should consider taking one of the earlier starts to ensure you reach the drinks stations within the cut off time. \nDrink stations\nDrink stations are located at the following locations. In the past these have been good places for spectators to see the runners but due to the traffic congestion in the area we are now asking spectators not to drive around the course hoping to see their friends. Instead\, if you are a spectator\, please go direct to Kings School. \nStation 1 – Clarendon Estate (near the palace ruins)\, Grid Ref SU181301.\nStation 2 – Pitton Village Hall\, Grid Ref SU213312.\nStation 3 – Winterslow Recreation Ground\, Grid Ref SU237328.\nStation 4 – Buckholt Farm\, Grid Ref SU277322.\nStation 5 – Broughton\, Rectory Lane\, Grid Ref SU308330.\nCut off time 13:15.\nStation 6 – Houghton\, Grid Ref SU338316.\nCut off time 13:40.\nStation 7 – Kings Somborne (near The Old Vicarage)\, Grid Ref SU361311.\nCut off time 14:00.\nStation 8 – Ashley Road\, Grid Ref SU390297.\nCut off time 14.30.\nStation 9 – Farley Mount Monument\, Grid Ref SU407292.\nCut off time 14:45.\nStation 10 – West Wood (on the northern side)\, Grid Ref SU418304.\nCut off time 15:00.\nStation 11 – West Wood (south side\, near the road)\, Grid Ref SU424294.\nCut off time 15:15.\nStation 12 – Ham Green\, Near the Cattery\, Grid Ref SU435306.\nCut off time 15:25.\nStation 13 – Pincent Scout Camp Entrance\, Grid Ref SU451297.\nCut off time 15:50.

This means that everybody can get involved in this great annual event that takes you running into the heart of our great city and into the surrounding countryside. \nThe events are\nThe Leicester Marathon – distance 26.2 miles.\nThe Leicester Half Marathon – distance 13.1 miles.\nCummins Relay Challenge – full marathon and half marathon routes. \nThe Leicester Marathon – distance 26.2 miles\nThe marathon distance is regarded by many as the ultimate challenge. Every great city around the world has its own iconic marathon – including London\, Berlin\, Paris\, New York and Boston. Well the Leicester Marathon is in our view\, an equally great event. With is downhill start into the busy city centre (roads closed for the duration) and out into the beautiful surrounding countryside\, we know you will love the Leicester marathon experience. That’s why people come back year after year. \nThe Leicester Half Marathon – distance 13.1 miles\nThere is a big difference between a 10k and a full marathon. That’s probably why the half marathon distance has become such a popular distance for runners. In fact in Leicester\, the half marathon is a really popular event attracting a large number of runners – far more that the full marathon. For some\, the half marathon is a stepping stone to a longer distance or a training event to a future marathon. For many\, it is a distance that is enough of a challenge in itself and one that can be revisited and refined over the years. \nCummins Relay Challenge\nWe’re delighted that Cummins Solicitors are sponsoring this event for the fifth time. The relay race has become a huge part of the successful Leicester Marathon. \nThis year for the first time there are two relay challenges. \nChallenge 1: Your team of 4 run around the Half Marathon route\, completing approximately 3.25 miles each.\nChallenge 2: Your team of 4 run around the Full Marathon route\, completing approximately 6.5 miles each. \nWith the relay event\, it’s all about raising money for LOROS hospice which\, as many of you will know\, is an extremely important and worthy Leicestershire charity. Last year\, we had 60 teams enter. Between them\, they managed to raise over £10k for LOROS. \nLet’s raise even more for LOROS in 2017.\nThis year we want to smash that £10k and with a huge amount of interest so far\, once again we are confident that with your help we can get there!\nWe’d love you to enter a team because every penny of your entry fee\, and any money you raise in sponsorship\, goes to LOROS. To boot\, you get to have a great team event\, some fun (honest!) and (hopefully) to get fit in the process – what could be more of an incentive? \nYour team of four will start and finish at Victoria Park\, where you’ll be able to enjoy well-earned hospitality after the event – laid on especially for our relay teams. \nThe entry fee is £100 per team. Your support of this fantastic\, local charity will be greatly appreciated. \nDon’t want to run?\nNot everybody can run or wants to run! But you can still get involved in one of Leicester’s great annual sporting events.\nVolunteer – there are lots of places around the course where you can volunteer. You can help guide runners along the course; give out running numbers at the start or assist people as they finish. \nSpectate – cheer along our runners around the course. \nJoin us in making the 2017 Leicester Marathon the greatest event yet. \nMarathon Pricing\nLeicester Marathon 2017 Results URL:https://raceconnections.com/event/leicester-marathon-2017-uk/ LOCATION:War Memorial Park Leicester\, Great Britain\, War Memorial Park \, Leicester\, LE1 7RH\,\, United Kingdom CATEGORIES:Running ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://raceconnections.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/The-Leicester-Marathon-2017.jpg ORGANIZER;CN="Result Base Ltd":MAILTO:info@resultsbase.net GEO:52.6234429;-1.1215425 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=War Memorial Park Leicester Great Britain War Memorial Park Leicester LE1 7RH United Kingdom;X-APPLE-RADIUS=500;X-TITLE=War Memorial Park:geo:-1.1215425,52.6234429 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20171015 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20171016 DTSTAMP:20260407T102958 CREATED:20170824T033225Z LAST-MODIFIED:20170824T033647Z UID:10002859-1508025600-1508111999@raceconnections.com SUMMARY:International Lake Garda Marathon - 15k & 30k DESCRIPTION:International Lake Garda Marathon 2017\nHere we go!

The organisation of a marathon is a considerable job\, and this year the Committee is grateful to the support from Abingdon AC\, Alchester AC\, Headington Road Runners\, White Horse Harriers AC and Witney Road Runners. Without this support and the assistance of a number of other local clubs and voluntary organisations the race would not take place. \nThe event is a BARR graded Gold event.
