About the race
Run Bournemouth is a coastal running festival held along the Bournemouth coastline in October. The highlight is the Bournemouth Half Marathon, a 13.1-mile route that takes in Boscombe and Bournemouth Piers, offering stunning sea views and a lively seaside atmosphere. The finish area at Bournemouth Pier Approach features cheering crowds, a finisher medal, and a commemorative t-shirt.
The event also includes the Supersonic 10K on the same weekend—flat and fast along the coast—plus the Supernova 5K and junior distances for younger runners. Spectators and support crews add to the festive mood, making it accessible and enjoyable for first-time half-marathoners. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
