Chris Hoy Edinburgh Half Marathon

Edinburgh half marathon banner  

18 April 2010

Breast Cancer Care is delighted to be chosen as an Elite Charity for the Chris Hoy Edinburgh Half Marathon, which is taking place on Sunday 18 April 2010.

The picturesque Firth of Forth coastline forms the backdrop to this scenic Half Marathon. Starting on the track at Meadowbank Stadium, the route then takes runners out of central Edinburgh to the Firth of Forth coast at Portobello before heading southwards towards a grandstand finish at Musselburgh Racecourse.

If you are interested in taking part in this event we would be delighted for you to join Team Breast Cancer Care Scotland using one of our guaranteed charity places.

What we provide

We will support you in your efforts every step of the way and provide all our runners with a support pack including your own running vest for race day. Our unrivalled cheering squads en route will be there to give our runners that extra boost of encouragement.
We will be there to congratulate you at the end of the race with a well deserved Breast Cancer Care goody bag and welcome you to the Charity Village to relax after the race with friends and family.

“I cannot explain the overwhelming and unexpected burst of emotion I felt when I passed a group of spectators in Breast Cancer Care shirts cheering me on.” Tara Eckenrode, Breast Cancer Care runner.
