Antrim Coast Half Marathon gets a ‘Boost’

The race, which takes place on August 25, will be broadcast on BBC iPlayer and via the Red button, and attracts running stars from around the world, including Kenya’s Hillary Chekwony and Ethiopia’s Yalemzerf Yehualaw, who will target her UK & Ireland All Comers Record.

Taking place on the scenic Antrim Coast, the half marathon has quickly become one of the most anticipated running events in the UK and Ireland and the 2024 edition promises to be the most exhilarating yet.

Ruth McIlroy, Event Director of the Antrim Coast Half Marathon, said: “We are so proud to say that our hydration partner for the 2024 race is Boost Sport. The Boost Sport range is isotonic, so they are a smart way for runners to stay hydrated as they make their way around the stunning course.

"The Antrim Coast Half Marathon is committed to enhancing the experience of our runners. Partnering with Boost Sport allows us to provide a crucial aspect of race day preparation and performance. We believe this collaboration will significantly benefit all participants and contribute to a successful and memorable event."
