The Eden Project is organising its first marathon and half-marathon through the countryside of Cornwall.

The race, which is being staged in conjunction with the St Austell Running Club, starts and finishes at the Eden Project at Bodelva, near St Austell, Cornwall, on October 11.

There will also be a one-mile fun run, taking in the sights and smells of plants from around the world in the famous Biomes.

The centre is hoping hundreds of local children will be join in the fun run and raise funds for their favourite charity or local cause.

As part of the Eden Project's Big Lunch Day there will be a bbq, beef baps, home made puddings, cream teas and fresh strawberries and cream at Corgee Farm, Luxulyan, Bodmin. As well as an afternoon of fun - games, stalls, rides to Helman Tor and a grand raffle - the event will be raising money for the South West Children's Hospice Precious Lives Appeal and the local chapel. All are welcome. Put PL30 5DS into your Sat. Nav.

This concert is a really exciting addition to the 2009 Eden Sessions line-up and we are delighted to be drawing attention to the vital work of The Prince's Rainforests Project. We are really grateful for the support of EDF Energy to enable us to host what will be an amazing night of music from one of the world's most respected and enduring artists."
