Entries now open for popular Bridlington Half Marathon

Entries are now open for this year’s Bridlington Half Marathon.

The 2021 race, organised by Bridlington Road Runners, will take place on Sunday, October 3, starting at 10am.

The course starts and finishes on Bridlington seafront and heads out to Sewerby, Flamborough and Bempton.

First run in 1983, the half marathon regularly attracts hundreds of runners from across Yorkshire and further afield.

Entry is £25 and includes a buff for each entrant and a medal for all finishers.

There will also be the onemile fun run held alongside the half marathon.

Club chairman Martin Hutchinson said: “Like so many events, the 2020 race had to be cancelled, so we are looking forward to welcoming runners from around the region for one of the biggest sporting events in Bridlington’s calendar.

“We know that runners are really keen to get racing again, so we are expecting there to be plenty of interest in the half marathon this year.”

Bridlington Road Runners are very grateful for the support of Wold Top Brewery, which continues to be the main race sponsor again this year.

However, the club is also keen to hear from other local businesses and organisations which are interested in becoming an additional sponsor for the 2021 half marathon.
