The Birmingham 5k, 10k and Half Marathon Winter Warmer Run
The event takes place in Sutton Park, Sutton Coldfield, Birmingham (B73 6BU) and offers three distance options:
- 5 km
- 10 km
- Half marathon
The event uses chip timing and chip on bib race numbers. Entry includes a medal, trophies for winners, marked and marshalled course, water stations, finish line sweets, medical cover and partner benefits. Penguin bars are listed among the finish items. Results are published after the race on the event timing system.
The course is mostly on paths with a small road crossing and a bridge crossing; participants are asked to take care at those points. The route is wheelchair friendly and buggies are permitted. Marshals are positioned around the course and the event provides finish-line water. Race packs are collected on the morning of the event at registration. Bag storage is available but space is limited. Toilets will be available within the event hub and coffee and snacks will be available for sale.
The Winter Warmer Runs support the charity Shelter. Fundraising is optional with no minimum target. Between April 2024 and March 2025, Shelter reported that 16,721 households received emergency helpline support, 13,130 households attended local hubs in England, and 13,700 households who sought help saw a positive change in their housing situation.
