Belfast City Marathon 2018

Come and join 17,500 participants expected to take part in the Belfast City Marathon now in its 37th year and help us to continue to provide essential care and support services tailored to the needs of the people of Northern Ireland. 80% of our services are funded by the public by taking part in events like the Belfast City Marathon.

Well known as one of the world’s friendliest marathon routes taking part provides an excellent opportunity to enhance your own health as well as the health of our local community through choosing to run for NICHS. The Belfast City Marathon event is one for the must do list of everyone here in Northern Ireland. We support you around the route with our cheer stations, our branded van, a big red double decker bus on Ravenhill Road and our cheer leaders from Sandy Row Falcon’s that give that massive mental push at the 19 mile mark (or where many hit the wall!) We also provide you with training plans, fundraising support and our exclusive running vest.
