Running Events in West Midlands

The West Midlands mixes big-city road racing with genuinely rural trail running. Birmingham hosts fast, well-supported events from 5K to marathon, while the Shropshire Hills and the Malverns offer hilly racing in some of the quietest countryside in England.

Add canal-side routes, Cannock Chase trails and long-standing club road events and there's something for everyone. Find every upcoming running event in the West Midlands below.
