NEW! Map of the course

Thoughts on 2008
2008 was the centenary year of Road Racing in Swanage, Gary Trent, the grandson of the 1908 winner, Mr Charlie Trent, started the race dead on time at 10am and 451 runners started off in very hot sunshine.

Swanage Carnival Half MarathonUnfortunately, the heat took its toll and quite a few runners dropped out along the route, one runner collapsed suffering with dehydration and was taken to hospital, thankfully he quickly recovered.
The weather aside, the turnout was good and 369 finished the run, the winners finishing time, taking into account the heat, was a very respectable 1:15:52, congratulations to Lee Piercy.

There will be a small change to the course this year, by doing so we will cut out the contentious area of Corfe Castle village and the Afflington Bridge stretch of road. A one way traffic order will be in place on this new stretch of the course.
A new course will be on this web site asson as we receive it.

Please Note: Late entries will not be taken after 09:00 on the 18th July.
THERE WILL BE NO EXCEPTIONS, SO PLEASE DON’T ASK. Make sure you are here early enough to register!!!!!!

For those of you who are looking for accommodation, we now have a link on our web site for B&Bs in and around our area, please book early as carnival week in Swanage is always very busy.
