Ben Mullany was a physiotherapy student at the University of the West of England (UWE) in Bristol. On Sunday, March 15th 2009, a group of UWE students will run the Bath Half Marathon to raise money for The Mullany Fund.  A Facebook Group has been set up for the event called “Student Corporate Entry to Bath Half fundraising for The Mullany Fund”. It says: 

“If you would like to take part please email laura.multon@live.uwe.ac.uk  You will be sent a code to use when you enter. Its £32 to enter and you need to raise a minimum of £150 for Ben and Catherine’s Mullany Fund.”

The Bath Half Marathon is one of the longest established and most popular city centre road events in the UK. It is also one of the largest charity fundraisers in the South West, raising over £1.2 million for charity last year alone.  The course itself is fast and flat making it suitable for all abilities – for beginners whose key objective is to complete the course, to more regular long-distance event runners, looking to beat their personal best time.  It covers a two lap 13.1 mile (21.1km) traffic free course straddling both sides of the River Avon. The race starts and finishes in Great Pulteney Street, in the heart of the World Heritage City of Bath. If you would like to find out more about the Bath Half Marathon go to www.runninghigh.co.uk.
