Register to take part in the Great Bristol 10K
Posted on: 01 Mar 2017The Simplyhealth Great Bristol 10K this year is taking place on May 7th, with 12,000 runners following the picturesque route through the city. Register for the event here.
Fun-runners of Bristol assemble! The Great Bristol 10K is back, returning to the city’s streets on May 7th, when around 12,000 runners will complete a route which showcases the best of its dramatic scenery and is perfect for all competencies: the relatively short distance renders it perfect for the first tentative steps into long-distance running, while the more accomplished will be tempted by the fast, flat course and its potential for delivering a PB.
Runners will take the starter's gun on Anchor Road before skirting the harbour and heading out along the Avon Gorge towards the Clifton Suspension Bridge. The return leg takes in Spike Island via St Mary Redcliffe, before ending up on Anchor Road again. Check out the full route below.
If you fancy combining your pulse-quickening with a bit of conscientious work, why not run on behalf of the Children’s Hospice South West? Your support is dearly needed to help them carry out their incredibly valuable work and they are always on the look out for runners. For more information, click here.
