The Adidas Silverstone Half Marathon is a superb event organised by the team behind the world famous London Marathon.
The 13.1 mile route follows the historic Silverstone race track in Northamptonshire. The flat course and its timing in March is ideal for a pre-London Marathon warm-up or as a great half marathon in its own right. See a photo gallery from the 2011 race.
If you'd like to be a part of our fantastic Team UNICEF for the 2012 event, register online to secure your place.
In return for a UNICEF charity place, we ask for a £30 registration fee when you sign up and ask you to pledge to raise a minimum sponsorship amount of £350 for our work with children. Don’t let this put you off – we’ll support you with your fundraising and help you raise the target with ease!
If you have any questions, email us or call 0844 801 2414.

Why your support matters
Every child has the right to a childhood free from exploitation, violence and abuse. Yet millions of children around the world are having their basic rights denied. This is wrong.
Your fundraising efforts will support our work promoting the rights of vulnerable children around the world, ensuring that we continue to help protect their right to an education, to be healthy, to be heard, to be treated fairly and to a childhood free from adult responsibilities.
By being a part of Team UNICEF, you will be helping us ensure more children get the best possible start in life.
