AJ Bell Great Bristol Run - 9 May 2027
The AJ Bell Great Bristol Run is a spring running event in Bristol offering both a 10k and a Half Marathon distance. The event starts on Colston Avenue and finishes on Anchor Road. Distances:
- 10k
- Half marathon
The course is described as relatively flat and passes Bristol rivers, green spaces, urban landmarks and graffiti murals, including Castle Park. The route was run in reverse in 2026 and the course may be subject to change. There is a rolling programme of road closures on event day, with roads reopened in phases once sections are clear.
Entries and participant information are published for the 2027 race, with saver and final entry prices listed by the organiser and a booking fee applied at checkout. Age eligibility on the day is 15 and over for the 10k and 17 and over for the Half Marathon. Race numbers contain timing chips and are normally posted from approximately four weeks before the event; late or overseas entries may collect numbers from the information point.
Event services include a free event day tracking app with results and split times, free 10k and half marathon training plans, personalised race numbers with names, baggage buses near the start, official event photos and a finisher medal plus an optional t-shirt and a finisher bag. Entertainment and music are provided along the route. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
