Islanders can now sign up for Guernsey Half Marathon
Runners in Guernsey can now sign up for the Butterfield Half Marathon.
The 13.1 mile coastal race, which is normally held on Father's Day in June, has been pushed back until Sunday 26th September. Overseas entrants will not be allowed to take part because of travel restrictions to the island.
Last year's race in June had to be postponed until September because of coronavirus. The Director of the Race says that hosting it later in the year has lots of benefits.
Any overseas entrants who decided to defer their entry last year will be offered a refund or deferred to 2022.
The 2021 event will mark the 21st anniversary of the competition. Last year more than 500 people took part, with it being the largest participation athletics event to be held in the British Isles since lockdown began.
