Brighton Marathon weekend
Date Posted: 17/03/14
The 5th Brighton Marathon will be coming to the city on Sunday April 6th, so you have the chance to cheer on the competitors or even take part yourself.
This years course is flatter, omitting the eastern hill from the route, which many participants will be grateful for. More entertainment has been put on for spectators throughout the course and more grandstands have been erected so that there are plenty of places to relax and enjoy the atmosphere.
The race will kick off at 9.15am and entries are increasing every year, making it one of the most popular runs in the UK.
Another addition to this year’s event is the 10k race which promises to be a great success. If you want to test the marathon track, but don’t want to go the whole way, you can run the beginning of the track at 8:30am before the main marathon begins.
Relax your legs at a great choice of Brighton hotels after the race.
