Join us for Run Solihull Half Marathon, 5k & Junior Race on Sunday 8th August 2027

With a vibrant event village in Malvern Park in the heart of Solihull, the event features fully road-closed routes and a fantastic race-day atmosphere. The Half Marathon follows an undulating course through Solihull town centre before heading out to the picturesque villages of Knowle, Barston and Eastcote, offering a rewarding challenge with plenty of PB potential.

The 5K provides a shorter, accessible option, while the Junior Race is the perfect opportunity for young runners to experience the excitement of race day.
