In the footsteps of kings

If you are looking for a marathon which is off road, picturesque and challenging then running the Clarendon is the ultimate. Our route takes you from Salisbury to Winchester along the ancient Clarendon Way with a few extra turns here and there to make up a full 26.2 miles. More than 90% is off road, with the trail following country tracks and paths many of which have not changed since being travelled by the ancient Kings and Queens of England.

Our marathon event was first run in 1998.  It was founded by Paul Elderkin, a keen runner and member of a local Hash House Harriers Club. This year brings a change, in that management of the event has now been passed to the Rotary Clubs of Winchester and Salisbury. We hope that you will be able to join us this year to help make the Clarendon Marathon even more successful and raise money for a wide range of charities.

The date for your diary is Sunday 7 October 2012.
