REGISTRATIONS are now open for Southend’s biggest event of the running calendar.
Havens Hospice will again be orchestrating the Southend Half Marathon, which next year is happening on June 8, 2025.
The hospice charity state: “Whether you’re a seasoned runner, just breaking into the world of half marathons or lacing up your shoes in memory of a loved one, this is the perfect half marathon for you. Last year was a sell out so sign up early to ensure you’ve guaranteed your entry for 2025.”
The 13.1-mile coastal course, starting at East Beach, Shoeburyness, is fast, flat and traffic free.
Havens continue: “What makes this half marathon truly special is the impact each mile has on the families Havens Hospices cares for. With every step, you contribute to ‘Making every day count’ for people of all ages who are living with incurable conditions and their families.”
The Cost: Runner – Affiliated £34, Runner – Non-Affiliated £36, Wheelchair Athletes £36.
Your entry fee covers the costs of running the event and this year the charity is asking participants to become a “Havens Hero” and purchase the Havens Hero entry tickets, which includes the cost of providing half an hour of essential care at the hospice, making a real difference for someone in need.
They continue: “So, lace up and sign up for a cause that truly matters. The Southend Half Marathon – where your run counts, and every step supports local hospice care.”
