GetPRO Bath Half Marathon | null
The Bath Half Marathon is a ‘big city’ race, starting and finishing on Great Pulteney Street – a beautiful Georgian boulevard in the heart of Bath. This course is fast and flat with proven potential to set a new personal best. By looping around the city twice, our runners do not have to tackle the famous (and large) hills that surround the city of Bath. You will run two identical laps on completely traffic free roads, supported every step of the way by the tens of thousands of spectators who line the entire route. Click on this image to see the course route. The sight of 15,000 runners set off down Great Pulteney Street, and then return to the same spot, 13.1 miles later, never fails to take our breath away. This vast boulevard is lined with spectators, sending you off, and welcoming you back, with so much encouragement. Whatever the weather on race day, the spectators arrive in their thousands to show their support. The support continues around the whole course. We estimate that around 30,000 people line the streets of Bath on race day, so you’ll never find a quiet stretch along the route.
