Get involved in the award-winning marathon set in the historic Roman Medieval destination, the great city of Chester.
The event organisers pride themselves on being runners themselves and have designed a route that spans the largely flat stunning city as well as the beautiful countryside. Combine this fast route combined with enthusiastic support from the ever so friendly locals and hydration/refreshment stations and it makes an unforgettable event. Alongside your charity, the event organisers offer support in the form of monthly training sessions & seminars.
The Chester half marathon is famous for being an enjoyable event and has won many awards over the years including the Runner's World best marathon of the year and sweatshop's best mass participation award.
Help us to give Hair and Hope to children and young people by providing wigs and funding vital research into childhood cancers. The charity provides around 2,000 real hair wigs every year to children and young people who have lost their own hair through cancer treatment or due to other conditions such as Alopecia. Each wig costs £550 to provide. Our wigs make a huge, positive difference to the lives of each recipient. We rely on events like these to help fund our free wig provision service. The Little Princess Trust is also now one of the largest funders of childhood cancer research in the UK and has committed more than £22 million to projects focused on finding kinder and more effective treatments for childhood cancers.
