Chesterfield Marathon runner registration at Casa Hotel
Runners taking part in the Chesterfield and Derbyshire Marathon are being asked to collect their race number for the event in the two days leading up to the big day.
Official registration for the marathon will take place at the Casa Hotel in Chesterfield on Friday 12 September between 10am and 9pm and on Saturday 13 September from 10am to 5pm, where runners can pick up their race number with disposable chip time attached.
Everyone will also be provided with a race day goody bag which will include an official t-shirt, water bottle and additional items.
A full information pack has been sent to runners via email this week, which provides details about the registration process, race route, as well as an update on water stations, car parking, baggage storage, timings, first aid, festival zones and event activities across Queen’s Park.
More than 1,500 people have already signed-up to take part in the Chesterfield and Derbyshire Marathon, which starts and finishes at Queen’s Park in the town centre.
Runners can take part in a full 26-mile marathon, half marathon, fun run or relay race, with the main events starting from 8:30am. Anyone interested in entering any of the distances needs to sign up before August 31, however fun run registrations are open right up until the day of the event.
Each runner will be presented with a medal on the finishing line, with a trophy presentation for certain categories.
Chesterfield-based Kids ‘n’ Cancer UK is the primary charity for the race, but a number of additional cancer related charities and good causes will also benefit from the race.
Entry into the events costs £45 (full marathon), £35 (half marathon), £100 (relay), and £5 (fun run). Runners raising £200 for Kids ‘n’ Cancer will be able to gain free entry.
Anyone unable to pick-up their race number and chip should contact Chesterfield and Derbyshire Marathon on 01246 236 566. For more information or to sign-up for the race visit www.chesterfieldmarathon.co.uk
