Half Marathon Route Details

The race starts in Millennium Place leading onto Radford Road before heading into Allesley. As the race leaves Browns Lane participants enter quiet leafy lanes with a gentle climb. Following this there is a 400m downhill run which leads into the final climb. The race is challenging but fun at this point which is about 8 miles into the run. Tamworth Road takes the runners on another downhill section back into the suburbia that is the Coundon area with great views of the city centre skyline. On the home straight the runners will head down Radford Road and reach their goal at the finish line on Hales Street.
