Fundraising Half Marathon

Join us for our Step Out for Age UK Plymouth challenge. A Half Marathon Walk through the spectacular Plymbridge Valley from Coypool for Clearbrook.

Sunday 29th September 2024

• Join an accessible challenge as we walk, run or jog through the Plymbridge Valley
• Walk along the traffic-free first stage of National Cycle Route 27
• Raise a minimum of £50 to support over 50s
• £25 entry, £15 for under 12s
• All participants will recieve an Age UK Plymouth branded wicking hiking top and finishers medal

This is considered a moderate challenge for someone of a good fitness level. At an average walking speed entrants are likely to be walking for around 5 hours. The terrain can be uneven in places but is predominantly tarmac with a loose gravel surface. There is a gentle uphill gradient on the way to Clearbrook which you will descend again on the return journey. We would expect a comfortable walking temperature on the day, but be aware that the early start will mean cooler conditions and we would recommend a light layer that can be transferred to a small day bag.

No previous hiking experience is required although you must ensure you have done plenty of practice walks in advance to prepare yourself for the challenge.

Entry is open to anyone over the age of 8, all participants must be able to complete the route independently.
