Royal Parks Half Marathon

Sunday 10 October 2010

The Royal Parks half marathon is an amazingly popular event – this year’s public places sold out in just 3 hours! And with its serene course winding its way through four of London’s Royal Parks, starting and ending in Hyde Park and taking in some of the capitals most iconic views including Buckingham Palace, the Houses of Parliament, and the London Eye, it’s not hard to see why.

Unfortunately, all of the Refuge places in this event are now full. If you have your own place and would like to run for Refuge, please contact us on fundraising@refuge.org.uk or 020 7395 7713 – we would be delighted to hear from you!

If you would like to run in a half marathon in aid of Refuge, how about the fabulous adidas Silverstone Half Marathon on 6 March 2011? See the relevant page of our website for details or get in touch on fundraising@refuge.org.uk or 020 7395 7713.
