About

The race

Join the thousands of runners on the new Promenade of the UKs no 1 Holiday Resort. This event is ideal for all the family and Blackpool is always a great weekend away! As always the event is run on Blackpool’s Promenade passing all the great landmarks and tourist spots. The race is a fast and relatively flat, two lap course on the seafront with great PB potential. It starts in Blackpool, taking runners along the Blackpool seafront past the many sights, including Golden Mile, St Annes and Lytham. Didn’t get into the London Marathon?
