All you have to do is register for the event – at www.winchesterhalf.co.uk – as follows:

• complete the registration form, entering 'Winchester SALT' when you are asked if you are running for charity;
• then, when you get to the payment page, enter 'SALT16' in the coupon code box; this will set your entry fee to zero.

Once your entry has been accepted, we will be in touch with information about how to set up your sponsorship page on LocalGiving and about the post-race celebrations that will take place at the Winchester Community Games.

We would like to invite you to take up one of our free places, and very much hope you will join us on 25/9 – and perhaps you know of others who run and are passionate about improving local sports facilities, in which case please alert them to this opportunity. But please don't leave it too long to register, as the 2016 Winchester Half Marathon is expected to fill up very quickly!

If you'd like any further information prior to registering, please don't hesitate to get in touch via [email protected]

For more information about our work to improve Winchester's sports facilities, please see the Winchester Fit for the Future project pages on this site or go to www.fit4thefuture.org
