Reading Half Marathon

was: April 5 now: November 1

Ah, the Madejski Stadium. Theatre of dreams. Home of those brave boys in blue-and-white hoops. If you’ve always wanted to follow in the footsteps of such Reading icons as Adam Le Fondre, Ian Harte and Kevin Doyle, your dreams are about to come true. The Reading Half Marathon finishes inside the stadium with a half lap of the pitch and, with up to 19,500 entrants, the atmosphere should not far off what you’d expect on match day. Maybe.
