About the challenge
Speeding round the most famous racing circuit in the country, this is the perfect chance to experience your first half marathon, or to improve your personal best. With its fast course and an incredible home-straight, the adidas Silverstone Half Marathon is a fantastic choice for a spring race.
It was my first ever long run and it was really good fun and brilliantly organised.
The Mind team made me feel really supported, encouraged and appreciated leading up to the event and on the day itself.
It was so good I hope to take part again next year!
