This awesome course is fast and flat, it proudly guides runners through the pristine and winding streets of Oxford in all its historic delight. The Oxford Half Marathon begins in the centre of the city and winds past Old Marston village, the River Cherwell and onto the very impressive Lady Margaret University Hall, the finish line stands at Parks Rd.
Charity runners will be charmed and kept motivated with live music, local Oxford bands and DeeJays all along the course.
It’s impossible to know what it’s like behind NICU doors unless you’ve walked those corridors, scrubbed your hands, heard the alarms and felt the fear of losing the most precious thing in the world to you. We get it because we’ve been there too. The Smallest Things is run entirely by volunteers who’ve had premature babies. And that’s exactly what inspires us to support families, raise awareness and instigate change. We believe in a better world for families of premature babies. A world in which parents have the time they need before returning to work, without money worries; the support they need after they leave the hospital; and the reassurance that they are not alone on their journey. Because prematurity doesn’t end when you leave NICU.
