Fit Brands have announced that they will be supporting the 2015 Surrey Half Marathon. The Surrey Half takes place on 8th March 2015 starting and finishing at Woking Leisure Centre and will see over 6,000 runners complete the 13.1 mile closed-road flat route. A further 200 children will take part in the Kids’ Race. Runners will be chip timed, pass 4 water stations, receive instant results via the race phone app, and be entertained by local bands as they run.
Fit Brands are a UK distributor and sales agency who represent a portfolio of exciting running specialty brands from the USA including timing brand Soleus, award winning sock brand Balega and carrier brand Y-fumble.
Runners are advised to save a little bit of their energy for the very end of their run and that’s where they will find the Soleus 100m Dash! The fastest male and female over the final 100m of the race will receive a great Soleus Dash Watch.
Jon Dennis of Fit Brands said, "We are so excited to be supporting this years Surrey Half Marathon. The Soleus 100m dash will be a fun addition to an already great race. Everyone loves to put in that last burst of energy into the final stretch; we thought we would reward those that push the hardest. The great part is that anyone can win, not just the runners at the front."
"It’s great to have Fit Brands on board as a partner for the Surrey Half Marathon,” said Race Director Toby Jenkins. “The Soleus 100m will be great fun, we look forward to watching our runners compete for a fantastic Dash watch prize.”
