Clarendon Marathon and Half Marathon
2017-10-01 | Wyvern College, Church Road Salisbury SP1 1RE, SP1 1RE, United Kingdom
Marathon and Half Marathon
Clarendon Marathon and Half Marathon; Salisbury to Winchester: Running or Walking
Overview:
If 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.
In 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.
Our 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.
The 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.
Early bird prices for bookings before 1 June are:
£30 for the full marathon (26.2 miles). £35 after 1 June.
£22 for the half marathon (13.1 miles). £25 after 1 June.

£70 for a 4 person relay team. £80 after 1 June.
Online 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.
Clarendon coffee mugs are available for £5 each.
A massage after the run will cost £7.
If 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%).
Your 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.

Full Marathon
The 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.
Registration is open from 7.30am. Runners should allow plenty of time to pick up their race numbers.
The 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.
There 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.
Buses 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.
The 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.
Relay marathon (x4)
The 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.
Teams 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.
Registration 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.
The relay change over points are as follows (click for maps):
Start from Wyvern College, Salisbury – SP1 1RE
The first changeover is in Middle Winterslow at the Sports Ground at OS Grid ref SU 237 329, (SP5 1RD).

Kids Race (free)

All the participants will be finished in plenty of time to see the marathon runners who will be arriving from about 13:15 onwards.
Cut off times
If 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.

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.

Gran Fondo Campagnolo Roma 2017
2017-10-06 - 2017-10-08 | Stadio Delle Terme Di Caracalla, Largo delle Vittime del Terrorismo,, Roma, 00153, Italy
Gran Fondo Campagnolo Roma Event
The Gran Fondo Campagnolo Roma has a length of 75 miles with an altitude of 6,643 ft elevation. For well trained riders. Certainly challenging and suitable for those with well trained legs and lungs. For this reason, to make it even more attractive to those who see the bike a means to compete (with others or themselves), the routes are varied and difficult. The route within Rome: Fori Imperiali, Piazza Venezia, Piazza Argentina, Corso Rinascimento, S. Andrea della Valle, via Tomacelli, Largo Goldoni, Via del Corso, Piazza del Popolo, LungoTevere to Via di Porta San Sebastiano. Then, once out of town in the direction of the Castles immortalized by centuries of stories, poems, songs and movies. Ancient villages, evocative, steeped in history and immersed in enchanted landscapes.
Lake Albano, which the Pope’s summer residence oversees, Rocca di Papa, Rocca Priora, Montecompatri are our four challenging timed climbs, with hard, dry features as they say in cycling words, could “be very painful” the muscles already tested by a path not exactly flat, especially in the city section with Roman cobblestones reminiscent of the legendary North European pavé.
The timed hill climbs:
Panoramica (Lake Albano) 2.3 kilometers, with an average gradient of 5.9% and a maximum of 8%.
Murus (Rocca di Papa) 1.1 kilometers with an average gradient of 10.3% and a maximum of 16%.
Rocca Priora – Trofeo Corriere dello Sport 6 kilometres, average gradient of 6.3% and maximum 13%
Rostrum (Montecompatri) 0.720 meters with a wall at an average gradient of 12% and maximum of 18%.
Rome is always near. You ride the hills, touching 800 meters above sea level, the fresh air, the feeling of being on vacation but wanting to race, that makes you want to crank it up. Head down, with hills and slopes and then Pratoni del Vivaro, a landscape straight out of Spaghetti Westerns, the Roman countryside and finally the return to Rome … goodbye to the freshness of the Castelli, hello the heat of the Eternal City.
An innovative gran fondo. Final classifications are awarded and for each category based on timing of the timed climbs with prizes in each category according to the times recorded in the four official hill climbs.
And a wonderful new initiative called Campagnolo Campagnolo Climbing Championship, for those who will go first in the four climbs of the Gran Fondo: Overview of the time trial, the Murus, Rocca Priora – Trofeo Corriere dello Sport and Rostrum who will have the honor of a special mesh.
A ranking for men, women of different categories in order to better represent all competitive, rewarding the most competitive, from the youngest to the oldest, will consecrate the Campagnolo Climbing Champion. And also two links will award the winners in the overall calculation of the 4 climbs and after arrivals you will be able to celebrate the King of Rome and The Queen of Rome. All Campagnolo Climbing Champion will show off their jersies the next year and will be entitled to a place in the front row of the starting grid. And, at the Expo Village, a Roman column “Wall of Fame” will have plates with the names of the winners.

The races will start from 8:00am so we ask that you arrive in plenty of time to change, register and warm up prior to the race start. On arrival at the venue you will asked to park in specific areas by members of the RG Active marshals.
You will need to register your attendance with at the registration desk where you will be given the following things:
– An coloured swim hat relevant to your race distance.
– On your hand will be written a ‘Number’, ‘Letter’ or both, this will be how the race marshals are able to record your time at the finish line of the race.
Note: At the registration desk you will also be able to purchase a selection of items including blueseventy goggles, swim toys as well as sports lubricant, energy products and hot or cold drinks.
The distances for all races have been measure by GPS equipment, however due to tidal changes in the river Thames the exact distance of the races could vary by a few metres on the morning of the race like with all open water events.
There will be three race options/distances to choose from, however EVERYONE will start in the same ‘Mass start’ at 08:00am.
Competitors racing the 750m (1 lap) course will exit the water via the matted ramp and follow the cones directly to the finish line where your time will be recorded by the RG Active time keepers.

As you continue your run west towards Lower Gardens at mile 18, you then head towards Poole’s Natural Harbour which is the largest in Europe before taking in the last few miles along the stunning sea front and finishing in Lower Gardens.

UVU Jungle Marathon - 254Km & 127Km
2017-10-08 - 2017-10-14 | Floresta Nacional, Do Tapajos,, Santarém,, 68040-000, Brazil
UVU Jungle Marathon
Welcome to the 12th edition of Jungle Marathon, an extreme footrace through primary Amazon Jungle in Brazil.
Jungle Marathon, the world’s wildest eco race, gives competitors the opportunity to combine sport and eco tourism and experience this stunning part of the world.
We offer three distances: a marathon; a 4 stage 127km race and a 6 stage 254km race.
The course, which includes swamps, river crossings, steep climbs and descents, village trails and fluvial beaches, combined with humidity and scorching temperatures makes it a daunting and exciting race, but well within the realms of any competitor who has a strong mental mindset.
Yes, physical fitness is a requirement- but if you don’t have strong mental tenacity to combine with it then you will struggle to reach the finish.
If you are ready for one of the most exciting and challenging adventures of your life, sign up today and join us from October 5th-14th 2017 in Amazonia, Brazil at the 12th anniversary of the legendary Jungle Marathon .

Many distances – one great day
The 2017 Leicester Marathon actually comprises of several running events. 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.
The events are
The Leicester Marathon – distance 26.2 miles.
The Leicester Half Marathon – distance 13.1 miles.
Cummins Relay Challenge – full marathon and half marathon routes.
The Leicester Marathon – distance 26.2 miles
The 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.
The Leicester Half Marathon – distance 13.1 miles
There 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.
Cummins Relay Challenge
We’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.
This year for the first time there are two relay challenges.
Challenge 1: Your team of 4 run around the Half Marathon route, completing approximately 3.25 miles each.
Challenge 2: Your team of 4 run around the Full Marathon route, completing approximately 6.5 miles each.
With 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.
Let’s raise even more for LOROS in 2017.
This 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!
We’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?
Your 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.
The entry fee is £100 per team. Your support of this fantastic, local charity will be greatly appreciated.
Don’t want to run?
Not everybody can run or wants to run! But you can still get involved in one of Leicester’s great annual sporting events.
Volunteer – 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.
Spectate – cheer along our runners around the course.
Join us in making the 2017 Leicester Marathon the greatest event yet.

The Abingdon Marathon was first held in 1982 and 2017 will mark the race’s 36th year since its inception. This will be the 35th running of the race – unfortunately the 2007 event had to be abandoned.
The marathon entry has grown over the years but has an entry limit of again 1,200 this year. We expect this number to be reached by the beginning of April, well before the closing date, so make sure you enter early to avoid disappointment.

The 2017 Abingdon Marathon will again incorporate a number of championship events: Oxfordshire County Marathon Championships, Berkshire County Marathon Championships, Middlesex County Marathon Championships and Army AA Marathon Championships. In addition, the event also hosts the Twin Towns competition. We always extend a big welcome to our friends from overseas, especially from Argentan, France, Abingdon’s twin town.
The Abingdon Marathon course passes through the centre of the Milton Park business estate.
The race is organised by a committee of volunteers from clubs across Oxfordshire. 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.
The event is a BARR graded Gold event. In addition to putting on a first class event for the competitors, the organisers aim to support a number of local charities and the main beneficiaries over recent years have included Against Breast Cancer, SeeSaw, The Archway Foundation and Abingdon Lions Club.

Berenloop Terschelling Marathon & Half Marathon
2017-11-04 - 2017-11-05 | Torenstraat, Den Haag, Netherlands, Terschelling, Netherlands
Berenloop Terschelling Marathon
The Berenloop has over the years become one of the largest athletics events in Northern Netherlands. This is not only due to the beautiful trail, which runs through the beautiful and varied nature of Terschelling, but also because of the fantastic atmosphere that is on the island during the Berenloop weekend.
Almost everyone at Terschelling is involved in the Berenloop: as a participant, as a volunteer or as a spectator, you notice that. Perhaps this is the reason, despite the challenging course, again excellent times are happening every year.
In 2017, the Beer Race is on its 21st edition. The first edition took place on October 26, 1997, as a sporting end of the theme year ‘400 years Willem Barentsz’. Willem Barentsz, famous seafarer and from Terschelling, tried to sail to Asia in 1596 via the north.
It became a monster ride with a lot of hardships and a forced wintering between the icebergs on Nova Zembla. By hunting for bears, the crew had enough food to survive winter, and thus the marathon came to her name: the Berenloop.
Arrangements
Participating in the Berenloop is ideally suited for a longer stay at Terschelling. For information about the many accommodation and arrangements, please contact the Terschelling Tourist Office .
Boats
Book your boat on time for both the return journey and http://www.rederijdoeksen.nl . This also applies when you only go back and forth on Saturday 4 or Sunday 5 November. During the Berenloopweekend the regular timetable will be extended with a number of additional boats.
Bus transport
In addition to the regular schedule, several extra buses are available during the Berenloopweekend. More information about the bus services on the island: http://www.bus-terschelling.nl After the Berenloop, there are free shuttle buses from the finish to the swimming pool and to Hotel Schylge.

Age categories:
Men: Seniors-M40-M50-M60

In case of unexpected cancellation, no refund of the entry fee will be made. On the Bears Race, the General Terms and Conditions of the SET (Terschelling Foundation Events) apply.
Cyclists and supporters
In view of the hassle of the trail, we ask you to make the least use of guidance by a cyclist. Obviously, accompanying cyclists should never interfere with other runners or ride a bike. They must also adhere strictly to the clues of police, contestants, traffic controllers and other volunteers. If they do not, the organization is obliged to remove the course and there is a chance that no cyclists will be allowed next year.
Certain sections of the trail, such as the beach, are not accessible to accompanying cyclists. This also applies to the last part of the trail in the village (from De Stilen nursing home).
NOTE: At the 2-kilometer point cyclists and runners cross each other. This is solved by zipping. Take a good look at the signs and follow the directions of the traffic controllers! The runners have priority at all times.
Supporters are not allowed to walk the final piece over the finish. The red runner is only for the finishers!

Athens Authentic Marathon - 5k & 10k
2017-11-12 | Panathenaic Stadium, Leof. Vasileos Konstantinou,, Athina, 116 35, Greece
Athens Authentic Marathon
The Athens Marathon, the Authentic Marathon, is not just a sporting event, a hard race, a tough course of 42,195m. More than that, the Athens Marathon, the Authentic Marathon, is a bridge that unifies the legend with history; it showcases the strength of human will; it is a fountain of values, of social liability, environmental sensitivity, friendship and solidarity.
In 2017, we are celebrating the 35th anniversary of the Athens Marathon, the Authentic Marathon, and we hope that our strong efforts along with your presence and participation in the race will turn this year’s event into a milestone for the years to come.
We are looking forward to seeing you at the Panathenaic Stadium on 12 November 2017!
The Venue
The Panathenaic Stadium is located on the site of an ancient stadium and for many centuries hosted games in which nude male athletes competed (gymnikoi agones) in track events, athletics championships as we would call them today. The games, which since antiquity had been held in an area far from the city, were included in the programme of the Panathenaia festival celebrations in 566/565 BC. When the orator Lykourgos assumed responsibility for the finances of Athens, in 338 BC, he included in the public works carried out in the city the building of a Stadium.
