Run Cumbria Solway Marathon

Anthorn anchors this Solway event, with the Run Cumbria Solway Marathon utilizing the rural roads of North West Cumbria instead of presenting itself as a major urban race. It offers a straightforward road running experience: a measured, certified course, chip timing by Timing4Sport, and its return after a significant interval since the last edition. The route is described as a “flat and fast route on the scenic rural roads,” consisting of “2 loops using country lanes” through Bowness-on-Solway before “returning to Anthorn via the coastal roads.” Expect road running, water stations at regular intervals, mile markers, and the type of participants who seek a genuine run on quiet lanes; finishers receive a bespoke medal, with an optional T-shirt available.
