Let yourself loose on the British Grand Prix track

Adidas Silverstone Half Marathon - 6th March 2011

We have 15 places in the Adidas Silverstone Half Marathon and we’re looking for keen runners to take up this challenge.

Held just six weeks before the Virgin London Marathon 2011, this 13.1 mile course around the world famous F1 circuit is felt by many to be ideal preparation for London. Whether you’re planning on using this as preparation, or it’s your first half marathon, this is an excellent race for a personal best! It’s a flat course and attracts thousands of spectators.

Already got your own place in the race? Simply fill in CAFOD’s online application form and we’ll aim to send out your fundraising pack within a few days.

Looking for a CAFOD charity place? Simply fill in CAFOD’s online application form . The entry fee for this event is £15. We’re asking runners to commit to raising £50 minimum in sponsorship to support our work with some of the world’s poorest communities.

Given the massive impact of the financial crisis hitting the world’s poor hardest, we really do need to ensure that together we raise the most we can.

Apply today and whether you already have your own place in the race or would like a CAFOD charity place, we will provide:

• Your very own CAFOD running vest.
• Training schedules and top tips to suit your running pace.
• A fundraising pack, sponsorship forms and your own fundraising web page.
• Team CAFOD e-newsletters.
• Lots of support in the lead up to the day.
