About the race
The GetPRO Bath Half is a road half marathon held in Bath, the UK’s only World Heritage City. The race covers 13.1 miles on traffic-free streets and uses Royal Victoria Park as the start line. The course is described as road, fast and flat.
The event has a long history, first held in 1982, and regularly attracts thousands of participants each March. Since 2000 more than £30 million has been raised for charity at the Bath Half, and the event is the largest charity fundraising event in south-west England.
Race services and participant provisions include event photography, timed results, Wessex Water and HIGH5 Energy Gel Aqua on the course, finisher’s t-shirt and medal as optional items, and the option to plant a tree with Avon Needs Trees. There is a tracking app and a free trial with the official training app Coopah. Finish-line refreshments include GetPRO and Goram IPA Zero as optional items.
On-site facilities include a free bag drop, toilets including accessible toilets, drinks stations with cupped water and energy gel, course distance markers, a Runners' Village, Sensory Calm Space, Parent and Child Space, Multi Faith Prayer Space, sanitary products, and bike parking on a first-come, first-served basis.
A separate GetPRO Bath Miles event is free to enter and offers a souvenir medal; it is scheduled for Saturday 13 March. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
