GO2, organisers of Plymouth’s Half Marathon, are reminding runners that they only have a matter of weeks until the event on Sunday 17th April, and that final places are selling out fast, with just 500 standard entries remaining!

The event has seen entry numbers increase steadily year on year, and organisers are excited to announce this year’s race has already seen a record number of runners sign up. Grab a place and set yourself the ultimate fitness goal in 2016 to complete Plymouth’s Half Marathon!

Jamie Warren, from organisers, GO2, said: “We are extremely pleased to announce that there are just 500 standard places remaining for this exciting event, and with the momentum still riding high, there is every possibility that these last few hundred places will sell out fast! Runners can still commit to charity spaces after this date, however we will not be able to accept any more standard or club entries.

“We have extremely high expectations that the race is set to be the most memorable in the Plymouth series yet! This unique opportunity promises to take you on a special journey that will culminate in crossing the finish line on race day, with a sense of achieving something really special in front of this amazing city!”

Now heading into its 23rd year, Plymouth’s Half Marathon is known for its scenic route and friendly atmosphere. The 13.1-mile journey will start and finish at The Hoe, with a course that boasts coastal views, the Barbican harbour and even the stunning National Trust grounds of Saltram Park.
