Run Bournemouth Sunday 2026

Run Bournemouth Sunday is the coastal race day in Bournemouth, Dorset, featuring the half marathon and Supersonic 10K as its main adult races. The broader Run Bournemouth series also includes a 5K and junior races, catering to first races, step-up distances, and the full 13.1-mile half marathon. The Sunday races take place in October, following spring and summer training, with the half marathon presented as a realistic first attempt at the distance. The half marathon uses the former Full Marathon route, passing Boscombe Pier and Bournemouth Pier, with long stretches alongside the sea before finishing at Bournemouth Pier Approach. The Supersonic 10K shares the same pier-to-pier coastal setting and is described by the organisers as flat and fast, suitable for runners progressing from 5K or aiming for a faster time. Half marathon finishers get a medal and finisher T-shirt, and the event is organised by GSi Events.
