Event information
A tough, hilly half marathon on trails with two laps (or a one-lap Ultra 10km option, which is actually 12.45km!) offering spectacular views over the Avon Valley.
The Hilly Half involves 1,650ft (500m) of elevation gain. You can expect to add at least 15% to your PB for a half marathon. Finishers of the Ultra 10 km are typically out on the course for between 1hr and 1h 45mins. The course includes hills, stiles, gates, rough tracks, and uneven ground, all set with spectacular views. There is no requirement to be fast, but please only enter the event if you have a good level of general fitness and some experience of running over hilly terrain.

To maximise affordability for all and reduce our environmental impact, we will not be providing race t-shirts and have lowered entry fees accordingly.
A full range of finish-line goodies (including food and drink) will be provided.
Aid/refreshment/encouragement stations (with water, sweets and good wishes) will be available at Weston, North Stoke, and Prospect Stile; and the Fool-on-the-Hill will command Kelston Roundhill as before!
Prizes (tbc) will be awarded to the top three male and female finishers in both races.
Additional prizes for course records will also be awarded.

Free parking at the event
Bath Racecourse is just six miles south of Junction 18 of the M4 Motorway and is well signposted from all major routes to its location on Lansdown Hill. Parking is free and plentiful. A taxi from Bath City centre would take approximately 20 - 30 minutes (depending on traffic).
For the many of you returning to run this great race again, please note as well as moving the day to avoid clashes with other races, the start time has been brought forward by 30 minutes compared to previous years. Both the Half and the Ultra 10km will start together on the racecourse at 10.30am.
