Birmingham

Birmingham's running is mostly urban and flat—the city centre and canal network offer accessible routes, though serious runners head south to Sutton Park's 2,400 acres of trails and elevation change. Cyclists dominate the scene here; the Birmingham Midland Cycling Club runs regular 25km time trials, and the Cotswolds lie just 30km south with rolling hills and the famous 100-mile Cotswold Way challenge as a longer objective. The Malvern Hills, rising to 615m, are within an hour's ride to the southwest and draw trail cyclists seeking proper gradient work.
