Bath & Bristol Railway Races

The Bath & Bristol Railway Races, held in autumn 2025, offer a unique running experience along the historic route of the original train line from Green Park Station in Bath to Bristol Temple Meads. This flat, 100% tarmac course provides a road race feel through scenic countryside and into Bristol's city heart. Distances range from a 2km fun run to a challenging 50km solo race, including 10km, half marathon, 25km, and marathon options.

The half marathon route features a stretch alongside the Avon Valley Railway, an active heritage line, while longer distances pass restored stations and signal boxes, blending history with sport in a picturesque setting. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
