Great South Run

We have five official BPA places for the Great South Run in 2018

The SimplyHealth Great South Run is a 10-mile race which starts and finishes on the Southsea seafront and takes runners past several historic landmarks.

The course follows a flat route and runners have memorable views of the Solent. Participants also get to run through Portsmouth Historic Dockyard, home to HMS Victory and the Mary Rose Museum.

The BPA has a fundraising target of £300 for this event, and unlike some charities, no registration fee!

Register early to secure your place – contact liz.gill@porphyria.org.uk or 0300 30 200 30.

Already have a place? If you manage to secure a place through the ballot, we’d love to welcome your support, and you get to set your own fundraising target.
