There was a record turnout for the 28th Belvoir Half Marathon and the 4 1/2 miles Fun Run with 640 finishers for the main event and over 75 in the Fun Run. The weather was good for the run with a slight overcast and a gentle cooling easterly wind. Results at this stage are unconfirmed but a large number of runners achieved Personal Best and a course record was set.
A big thank you to all the runners who took part for making a great atmosphere, especially to the regular supporters - you make all the effort worthwhile. Thank you to all the local volunteers who helped support the event.
The event was organised by Hose Village Hall Management Committee, in order to raise funds to improve the village hall facilities. We hope that it is a friendly event, which first-time runners as well as our many regular visitors will attend.
