Bupa Great South Run
Sunday 25 October 2009

One of the most popular road races in the UK, the Bupa Great South Run takes place in Portsmouth and is Europe's premier 10-mile running event. The run follows a fast and flat route in Southsea, Portsmouth which is an ideal course for both first time runners and experienced runners who want to record a personal best.
