26 October 2008
Location: Portsmouth
Be one of 18,000 runners striding through 10 miles of Portsmouth and battle the elements that the South coast throws at you. The Muscular Dystrophy Campaign has limited places in the Great South Run to offer to our dedicated fundraisers.

The BUPA Great South Run is held this year on Sunday 26 October and is staged over a flat 10 mile course through Portsmouth and Southsea, providing varied scenery coupled with stunning views ending in the final two miles along the sea front looking out to the ocean. So why not end the racing calendar on a high before the winter months draw in.

Have you got your own place?
