RUNNERS looking to take on a marathon challenge next year can sign up to the ABP Newport Marathon Festival now.
The date has been set for the second instalment of the new-look event, which saw the addition of a new half marathon distance to the marathon and 10K races.
Next year’s event will take place on Sunday 13 April 2025 and those keen to secure their spot can take advantage of special launch offer pricing.
This will allow them to save 25% versus general entry in the Marathon, and £10 off general entry for the Half Marathon. However, they will have to act quick, as this offer ends on 31 May 2024.
Entry to the Junior Races is also open. The 10K race entries will be launched later in the year.
Matt Newman, Chief Executive at event organisers Run 4 Wales, said: “It was fantastic to see so many runners taking part in our new-look ABP Newport Marathon Festival this year and we hope to continue to grow and develop the event to make it a fantastic day out for the whole family.
“With the addition of our half marathon option, it now means athletes of all abilities can take part in the day, get active and celebrate their achievements.
“We’re looking forward to welcoming runners back to the streets of Newport in 2025 and are so thankful for the continued support of our title sponsor, Associated British Ports, and Newport City Council.”
