The GetPRO Bath Half takes place on Sunday 14 March 2027, with the start line in Royal Victoria Park. Runners cover 13.1 miles through Bath on a fast, flat course with the roads closed to traffic. It was first held in 1982, and more than £30 million has been raised for charity at the event since 2000.
What to expect
Runners get event photography, timed results, a finisher’s T-shirt and medal (both optional) and drinks stations on the course. After the finish there is a free Runners’ Village where friends and family can meet. Facilities include a free bag drop, toilets (including accessible ones), a sensory calm space, a parent and child space and a multi faith prayer space.
If you miss out on a general place, charity places are available through the organiser and partner charities.
