The Bridgwater Half Marathon, 10K, and 5K offer a scenic run through the Somerset countryside, passing through the villages of Chedzoy and Stawell. With a mostly flat route and strong local support, it is ideal for first-timers and experienced runners alike.
The half marathon follows a UKA-certified course with chip timing, making it suitable for those targeting a personal best. The 10K follows the opening section of the half marathon route before turning back towards Morganians Rugby Club, while the 5K fun run is open to all abilities, including walkers, with under 18s accompanied by an adult.
The event starts and finishes at Morganians Rugby Club, with a short loop through Chedzoy. The course is well supported with marshals, signage, and water stations, although roads remain open to traffic.
Event day begins with registration at 9:00 am, followed by staggered starts for each distance from 11:00 am. Runners are advised to arrive at least 45 minutes before their start time.
Facilities include changing rooms, bag storage, parking, refreshments, and massage services. Fancy dress is welcome, and the event supports Cancer Research, adding an extra reason to get involved.
