Bideford Half Marathon - 7th March 2010 - "talk about a swift half!"

"IN MEMORY OF SHEP"

2 years ago David Shepperd, the world famous cricket umpire started the 14th Bideford Half Marathon.

Sadly 2 months ago he lost his battle against cancer. The 16th Bideford Half Marathon is therefore dedicated to his memory.

The Bideford Half Marathon is held in March each year over a virtually level course taking in magnificent countryside alongside the River Torridge between Bideford & Great Torrington. The course is half on country roads and half on the Tarka Trail which was formerly a railway line (you even get to run through a tunnel). 

 

ENTRIES ARE NOW CLOSED
