Event
The Lincoln Marabank is a 7-hour timed running event held at Burton Waters near Lincoln. The course is flat and traffic-free, following a canal towpath alongside the Roman-built Fossdyke - described as England's oldest canal still in regular use. Runners have up to seven hours to cover as much distance as they choose.
Distances offered:
- Half marathon
- Marathon
- Ultra marathon
- 7-hour timed distance
Medals are awarded to anyone who completes at least one measured lap. Marathon runners are offered a course intended to match an approved marathon distance; the measured distance may be slightly over. An early start option is available for marathon entrants, extending the available running time for that distance.
