Great Birmingham Run - Half Marathon

Home » Events » Birmingham Half Marathon

About this event

The AJ Bell Great Birmingham Run is the Midlands’ biggest and best running event, with thousands of Brummie runners taking to the streets every year to challenge themselves and raise cash for charity. 

There’s everything you’d expect from a Great Run – notorious start line hype, top on-route entertainment and an event village that feels more like an after party – but the carnival atmosphere and the passion and spirit of the runners is all Birmingham.

Expect inspiring sights, iconic landmarks and incredible support all along the 10k and half marathon route.

Every step you take will be raising funds for women and families facing pregnancy and pregnancy loss alone. Here’s your change to challenge yourself while giving them someone to listen and offer support!
