Birmingham Running Festival July 2025

We’re back for our next Birmingham Running Festival on Sunday 20th July 2025 at the wonderful Sutton Park in Sutton Coldfield, Birmingham. Choose between a 5k, 10k or Half Marathon distance - we’ve also added a Junior race making it the perfect opportunity for a fun morning out running with friends and family!

Event Highlights

The home of the National Road Relays, you will be running on the paths once pounded by Sir Mo Farah, Andy Vernon and many more of our GB greats through the 2,400 acre National Nature Reserve. Entry will include a unique themed medal, chip timed results, free official race photographs, and post-race goodies.

Race Details

Each mile will be accurately marked out and we have plenty of helpers to keep you on track and encourage you on your way to that chequered flag finish. Located only 6 miles from Birmingham City Centre, this event promises to be a memorable experience.

Volunteer Opportunities

Here at RunThrough, we are always looking for likeminded people to join our community. We value an extra pair of hands and would love for you to come along and help us! From managing stalls at the event village to handing out medals at the finish, our volunteers are a critical part of what makes RunThrough events so special.

Sustainability Efforts

We have been extensively researching what runners consider important, and sustainability is fast becoming a key area. We are committed to making our events more sustainable and eco-friendly.
