CANBERRA HALF MARATHON WEEKEND EVENTS 14/15th MAY

From Ken Eynon, Race Director - a reminder to everyone that entries for the Canberra Half Marathon close on Monday 2nd May. This year for the first time we will be having events on the Saturday afternoon and of course on Sunday morning the half marathon. We would like to make this a great weekend of running in Canberra and emulate last weekend's Marathon Weekend. Of course the weather won't be so hot but nice and cool and great for PB's. Please pass this advice on to your family and running friends interstate, get them to come to Canberra for a great weekend of running. The great thing is it all happens the weekend before the Sydney Morning Herald Half. You can enter online at www.canberrarunner.com.au or you can download the entry form and post it in. Details on accommodation and places to stay can be obtained from Australian Capital Tourism (www.visitcanberra.com.au). The backpackers accommodation in Canberra is some of the best accommodation in Australia and well located. Don't forget you can if you like run the 5k Fun Run on Saturday and the Half Marathon on Sunday all for one cheap price.
