review

This year's race took runners directly past the Royal Pavilion and on past the 200 year old Theatre Royal - one of many gorgeous Grade 2 listed buildings on the route and undoubtedly one of the most prestigious venues in the country.

The Sussex Beacon Half Marathon 2008

The Sussex Beacon Half Marathon 2008

This year's Sussex Beacon Half Marathon was the biggest and best yet. Clear blue skies and lots of winter sun provided perfect conditions for the 4,800 runners gathering on Madeira Drive for this annual event - proof that it is now a firm fixture in the athletics diary.

With the final straight almost in sight - the route takes runners along the top road for a good view of the pier and... well... the runners below that have already finished!
