Experience Eden as you never have before – take part in one of our races on 10 October 2010. We’re inviting everyone from serious runners through to enthusiasts and families to take part in a series of races through the extraordinary scenery surrounding the Eden Project. Kicked off last year, the Eden Marathon is the largest race in Cornwall, offering the full and half Marathons through the Clay Country, and the Fun Run right through the biomes on-site. Runner’s World, the UK’s biggest running magazine, rated it 89% in 2009, describing it as an “impressive debut”. One reader wrote: “A great race, tough course and superb fun. It was well organised and the atmosphere among the runners was fantastic.”
