Race for Life Bristol 5k

The Bristol route mostly follows the perimeter of The Downs, is a fairly flat course with a mixed terrain, which takes in amazing views of the Gorge and Suspension Bridge. There are lots of cheering points along the way and the whole event has a fantastic atmosphere.

Please arrive 15 to 20minis before your start time so that you are prepared and ready to go on time

The majority of the route is on grass on The Downs, with a slight incline from the Sea Wall up to Stoke Road making the route wheelchair accessible with assistance.
