Great Cumbrian Run

The Great Cumbrian Run, held at The Sheepmount in Carlisle, is Cumbria's premier half marathon event since 1982. Scheduled for October 5, 2025, it features multiple distances including a 13.1-mile half marathon, a 10K, and family fun runs of 1.1 and 3.1 miles. The event is managed by Better and Sport in Action, emphasizing community benefit and athlete safety.

The course offers a mix of routes through Carlisle, finishing on the stadium track, creating a lively and inclusive atmosphere suitable for all ages and abilities.
