Using experience gained 10 years ago, IM Events were instrumental in launching, promoting and coordinating the first ever Carlisle Half. The day consisted of a half marathon, 10k and family fun run and the feedback from just under 1000 entrants has been unbelievably positive and unpresedented for the first year of a running event. We were delighted to have Eden Valley Hospice as charity of the year for 2018 and plans are already in place to make the event even bigger and better in 2019. There was a huge amount of operational work completed, with the assistance of Mike James of Endurance Sports, as well as a huge amount of effort from race director Dean Smith. Dean is race director for a number of large running events all over Europe and to secure his services was a real coup. He is looking forward to next years event.
