The Leicester Marathon is taking place on Sunday 10th October 2010 from Victoria Park, Leicester.This year the beneficiaries of the event will be LOROS Hospice and The Matt Hampson Trust. The Race organisers are buzzing with enthusiasm as places are filling up fast with record numbers expected this year.Race Director, Christian Weikert-Picker said “We launched the ‘new look’ marathon to attract the community into taking part. The Marathon is aimed at everyone, including Marathon Fun Runners, Active Gym Goers and your traditional Road Runners. Sunny the Sunflower was chosen to front the Campaign and it looks to be paying off with Online entries hotting up as the Leicester Marathon is still cheaper than many other City Marathons. The ‘new look’ has also encouraged a growth in Volunteer awareness.”For further details on the Route and the entry process please log on to www.leicestermarathon.org.uk, where you’ll find a quick and easy registration form. So get your shoes on and start your preparation today! Don’t forget there is also a Half Marathon and a Corporate relay that will take place on the same day.
