TIME is running out to enter Exeter's Great West Run, sponsored by Tozers.
People have until midnight on Tuesday, September 23, to secure their place in this year's race which will take place on October 19.
Jamie Warren, head of marketing and commercial at race organisers GO2, said: "The response from Exeter to date has been fantastic, and we are delighted that so many have already set the half marathon as their goal to aim for.
"We are encouraging anyone who has been thinking about signing up to do so now and not to miss out, as unfortunately there will be no standard entries available after September 23 or on race day itself."
Exeter's Great West Run aims to showcase the best of Exeter, taking a central route through the city centre, Exwick, university, Pinhoe Road as well as the country lanes of St Andrew's Road and on to Stoke Woods.
Jamie added: "The route of Exeter's Great West Run is well known for its spectacular scenery and friendly atmosphere, which has proved popular with both newbies and the more seasoned pros alike."
Entry numbers have already far surpassed those of 2013, with just under six weeks to go until race day.
Jamie said: "The interest in Exeter's Great West Run has been fantastic, and we are delighted with numbers for this year's event.
"The city of Exeter has really got behind the race. Last year, around 60 per cent of our runners signed up in the last couple weeks, which is a trend we often see across all of our races, however this year's race is not far at all from selling out.
"For all of our regular runners, we would highly recommend signing up now to avoid any disappointment."
