The 17th Atrium Grunty Fen Half Marathon takes place on September 9 and those wishing to take part must submit their entries by midnight on Monday (September 2).

This year's race incorporates the Cambs Road Race League, the Cambs AA County Championships and for the first time, the Association of Running Clubs (ARC) Half Marathon National Championships.

The half-marathon will start and finish at Witchford Village College and runners will run two laps of the fast, flat course, which takes in Main Street and the surrounding countryside.

For the first time, a chip timing system with start and finish detection will be used.

Taking place at the same time will be the ever-popular one-mile fun run. Entries for the fun run can only be accepted on the day and must be submitted at the college.
