Birmingham
Thousands of Brummies pound the streets every year to rise to the challenge of the AJ Bell Great Birmingham by tackling their half marathon or the 10K, with plenty of participants raising cash for good causes. There’s everything you’d expect from a Great Run – notorious start line hype, top en-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.
10k – £15 entry fee | £200 Minimum Fundraising
Half Marathon – £30 entry fee | £350 Minimum Fundraising
We could go on all day about why you should join our team, but we’ll keep it short.
- You’ll receive a free exclusive Santini-design running top.
- You’ll have free support from our incredible training partner and expert fundraising team.
- Most importantly, you’ll be raising vital funds in the battle against blood cancer.
