The 2020 PSUK Marathon will take place within the Havens Hospice Chelmsford Marathon on Sunday 17th October starting at 0915 hours.

Be part of this major sporting event that takes you from the centre of Chelmsford out into the Essex countryside before returning to the city to cross the finish line in Central Park. All on road or tarmac paths. Rise to the challenge and you’ll be helping The Hospice charity to support young adults with life-limiting conditions across Essex.

Every participant receives a bespoke medal, technical runner shirt, goody bag, refreshments on route and chip timing. The race village will have toilets, baggage, and changing facilities, as well as refreshments to purchase. The race is expected to attract over 1,000 participants.

 

Venue: Central Park Chelmsford.

Some of the stations will provide sugary drinks and snacks.
