CARLISLE HALF MARATHON – SUNDAY 1ST SEPTEMBER 2019

posted in: Race Reports | 0

Eccleshill’s brother and sister duo’s latest challenge was the Carlisle Half Marathon, also incorporated in the event are a 10k and a 2k family fun run. Billed as a fast, flat, PB potential course, the start and finish of the races are at Brunton Park, home to Carlisle United! The start, behind the East Stand, then sees runners turn right onto Warwick Road. Within the first 3 miles the race takes runners via the Citadel, through the Lanes, through the Cathedral grounds and then past the front of Carlisle Castle before heading into Bitts Park. After the park the route goes up Brampton Road with the 10k doing a loop around Longlands Road before heading into Rickerby Park and the Half then goes on to Crosby on Eden, Linstock, Rickerby and
Stoneyholme before finishing at the stadium in front of the dug out.

Well done to Annie Kisluk finishing in 1:59:30 & David Goodyear 2:06:15!
