There’s lots of choice at the Bungay Festival of Running. As well as the Full Marathon, there’s the Half Marathon, 10 km and 5 km races. You can also enter the Double Doggie, race both the 10 km and Half Marathon on the same day. There is also a Fun Run entirely on our sports ground, distance approximately 800 m. The Marathon course (26 miles 385 yards) and the Half Marathon course (13 miles 192.5 yards) are classified as multi-terrain courses, as is the 10 km race. The 5 km race is a measured road race with an accuracy certificate. The Bungay Marathon and Half Marathon had measurement accuracy certificates until 2013. In 2014 both officially became multi-terrain courses. The courses therefore do not have current measurement accuracy certificates, but have Statements of Course Measurement.  The surface of a path (1.7 miles long) had deteriorated to the point where measurement accuracy was no longer sufficient. The course itself has not changed. The 10 km course uses the same path and is therefore also classified as multi-terrain. The marathon course is 2 laps of a 13.1 mile loop through the scenic Waveney Valley of Suffolk and Norfolk.  The half marathon course […]
