The Ironbridge Half Marathon 2019

Every year the Telford Harriers put on their annual race, the Ironbridge Half Marathon. And this year was a special one, it was the races 30th year anniversary!
Runners congregated at Telford Town Park on Sunday 24th March 2019 with the sun shining, all ready to tackle this tough 13.1 mile course.
The route took runners out of Telford Town Park, down the Silkin Way and into Coalport. Once over the Coalport Bridge, runners tackle some trails before coming into Ironbridge itself and passing over the historic, world renowned Iron Bridge. After a short run down the Wharfage, runners stckle the infamouns Statio Hill before running up into Coalbrookdale and into Rough Park.
Runners then rejoin the Silkin Way for a tough few miles back into Telford Town Park and the finish.
Over 900 runners competed in the race with the overall win going to Paul Ward from Telford Athletics Club, with Kim Fawke winning the ladies title.
A fantastic even from start to finish with each runner earning a fantastic medal and goody bag at the end.
