    One Running Movement is a collaborative evolution for movement and change, on a mission to encourage people of all ages to #MoveForLife.

    One Running Movement offers a series of Half Marathon and Marathon cumulative running events to encourage everyone to get active as part of their daily routine, whilst getting outside more, reducing screen time and achieving a fantastic goal.

    One Running Movement is for all ages from 13+ / Schools Running Movement is for ages 4 to 12.

    Half Marathon and Marathon options are available at every age, and entry is open for a number of events through Direct Entry or as a School.

    Direct Entry gives families, groups, individuals and siblings the chance to get involved and join the movement. A #GiveBack initiative has been created so that £5 from every Direct Entry goes towards funding places for children aged 4-12.

    Schools Half Marathon Brighton and Hove 2019School Entry is available for any school wishing to take part and is proving extremely popular with primary school age pupils up and down the country. On event day there are separate waves for Schools and Direct Entry.

    At the live events everyone comes together to run the final 1.1 mile (Half Marathon) or 1.2 miles (Marathon) of their challenge, and the atmosphere is incredible as the runners cross the finish line and receive their medal and carton of water in front of teachers, family and friends. Any school, group or individual not able to attend a live event has the option to complete their cumulative Half Marathon or Marathon virtually.

    FAQs

    Who can take part in One Running Movement?

    Schools Half Marathon 2019 medalsIt encourages youngsters and adults to develop new, healthy habits to exercise regularly, stepping away from screens and electronic gadgets and sharing the joy of their sporting achievement with friends. One of the best things is seeing the big boost of confidence that participants experience as they progress through their miles and the pride on their faces when they receive their hard-earned (and very big and shiny!) medals. This is something that can be experienced by runners no matter how long it takes them – it is simply about getting out there and doing it. The benefits of getting outside in fresh air and taking part in regular activity are for everyone to enjoy!

    How did One Running Movement come about?

The first official Schools Half Marathon took place in June 2018, in Shropshire, as part of Shrewsbury Half Marathon weekend. Schools Half Marathon is now a stand-alone event and part of the nationwide Schools Running Movement by One Running Movement.Shropshire Primary Schools Half Marathon
