Deep RiverRock Belfast City Marathon launches its 2021 Events

March 2021 - South Side Advertiser

Following a year of chaos, the organisers of the Belfast City Marathon Ltd are delighted to open entries for their 2021 portfolio of events: Deep RiverRock Belfast City Marathon and Virtual Half Marathon.

Due to the pandemic of COVID-19, the Company would like to welcome participants back safely and have decided to stage their FIRST VIRTUAL Half Marathon on May Bank Holiday Weekend (1st May – 3rd May).

All runners will complete their 13.1 race close to their home following local Government Guidelines for exercise and social distancing. Entrants must complete the distance in one session and upload their results before midnight on Monday 3rd May 2021.

Registered participants will receive a Decathlon tech t-shirt and medal in their pack once the event is completed and we are thrilled to announce that £5 from each entry fee will be donated to our official charity partner Cancer Focus NI. Final deadline for registration is Friday 23rd April 2021 and online entry is available at www.belfastcitymarathon.com

 John Allen (Chairman of Belfast City Marathon Ltd) said: “We are delighted to launch our 2021 Events in a safe manner. Moving the Half Marathon virtually will enable everyone to get involved safely. It is important at this time that we try to keep some type of routine and we believe that this temporary change of order will help motivate people physically and mentally.”

Hilary Hughes, Marketing Manager at Deep RiverRock said:

“We are so proud to be the title sponsor of the Deep RiverRock Belfast City Marathon, in this its 39th year. As Northern Ireland’s favourite water brand, we will be there on the day, taking part in the marathon. We will ensure that runners are kept hydrated with dedicated water stations along the 26.2-mile route and at the finish line. We will be handing out our 100% Recycled AND Recyclable Deep RiverRock water bottles, which are all made to make a difference. To everyone taking part in the marathon in September, we wish you the very best of luck with your training, enjoy every step of it, stay hydrated and I look forward to cheering you on & seeing you cross the finish line in Ormeau Park”. 

Entries are available at www.belfastictymarathon.com and final entry for the Full Marathon (September Event) so why not “Run through the Seasons” and build your miles for our first and only Autumn Marathon?
