MBNA Chester Marathon - 2nd October 2022

The pace runnners

We're pleased to announce that in 2022, we will back to a 19 strong Pace Runner crew targeting every 15 minute time slots from 3 hours to 5 hours.

Pace runners run the race at a pre-determined pace which they may adjust slightly at different points in the race to take account of the changes in terrain.

If you are a new runner with a specific target time in mind or you are looking to beat your personal best time, our Pace Crew will be there to help you achieve your goal.

Our Pace Runners are also a familiar sight at our monthly training runs, where they support runners in their progress towards race day.

If you'd like to be considered for any of the available slots in our 2022 Pace Crew, or to be considered for any future events, please contact our Pace Crew Manager, Dave davet@activeleisureevents.co.uk
