Well, I would say that seeing that I am a member of the organising club. Seriously though folks, this is a good race, well supported and is what is known in the trade as "undulating". The route for the Half is also the first half of the full Marathon course, so you will have plenty of company. Who else is up for it?

Thanks!
See you there.
Hi guys
Does anyone know if this is the same route as last year - I remember it being undulating and fancy another go
Carolyne Yes it is the same course.
Arkinshaw, the Folkestone Half has the hill from Hell going up the aptly named Avenue of Remembrance between the 12 and 13 mile mark. Our hills are nowhere near as bad as that one.
Hello.
I'm doing Loch Ness on the 2nd Oct and Snowdon on the 29th. I'm scheduled to do a half the weekend of the 3rd Sept, so thought this one looked like a good challenge. My daughter lives in Ashford , so a nice excuse to travel up from South Wales and see my darling grandchildren the same time. Perfect!
What I am wondering is if I could register on the day? Is it as picturesque a route as it sounds?
As I'm doing lots of hill (mountain?) training, as far as I'm concerned, the more of a hilly challenge, the better.
Than you CB!
ffRan Here is the response I got about entries on the day:
"Its number dependent... The entry form says yes, if spaces...
In some years there have been none, and in some recent years there have been some.."
If you want to be sure I would book in advance, it is a long way to go and then not be able to run.
Hi All - online and postal entries closed today. I will endeavour to get all numbers out for the entries that I have received by the end of this week.
There will be limited entries on the day on a first come first served basis at £20.00.
Bill are you doing the the fantastic whitstable park run in the morning? i'm tempted but having rested yesterday, swam for an hour solid today, i'm thinking i should rest until sunday!....
undecided of Birchington!
Good morning,
I am injured so cannot run the Kent Coastal Marathon tomorrow 4th Sep. I signed up in early May, so am pretty upset about it as this was meant to be my autum marathon.
Is there any chance I can keep my place for 2012?
Cheers
F Faure - unfortunately we don't transfer places over to other events unless we have to cancel. Sorry to hear you are injured and wish you a speedy recovery.
Just back from signing the course - it was HOT! There are water stations around the course but please make sure you are well hydrated before the start.
anyone got a postcode for the oval. or somewhere near by?
Thanks
See you tomorrow
Hi All, well done to everyone today! Results are now up on TRAC's website....
