AJ Bell Great Bristol Run 2026
Great Bristol 10K & Half Marathon
The 2026 AJ Bell Great Bristol Run is now open for entries! Run on behalf of The Friends of Bristol Haematology & Oncology Centre.
The AJ Bell Great Bristol Run is known for its fast, flat course, making it perfect for personal bests. You'll race through the heart of the city, taking in iconic sights like the SS Great Britain, the vibrant waterfront, and the Clifton Suspension Bridge. Both the 10K and Half Marathon routes offer a fantastic tour of Bristol, all with the support of thousands of cheering spectators.
Join our team for the Great Bristol Run and help support cancer care in and around Bristol and Somerset! To run for The Friends of Bristol Haematology & Oncology Centre, you'll pay a registration fee of £15 for the 10K or £25 for the Half Marathon. In return, we ask that you pledge to raise a minimum of £200. Your fundraising efforts are crucial, as they allow us to continue providing vital support to those who need it most.
