The 5th Tresco marathon will be held on Sunday 18 April 2004 with a maximum field of 125 runners.
The Tresco Marathon was first run in 2000 when Island Hotel head chef, Peter Hingston, wanted to raise money and awareness for the Cystic Fibrosis Trust, as his daughter has the condition. The marathon has since become an annual event and continues to raise funds for the Cystic Fibrosis Trust, with over ?100,000 raised to date.
The challenging course consists of 71/2 laps, each with 3 hills, run on rough concrete roads around the island of Tresco. The course record is 2 hours 53 minutes and 49 seconds.
