Great Birmingham 10K

The Great Birmingham 10K is an annual road running event in Birmingham City Centre, United Kingdom.

Usually held in May, the 10 km event takes place in the city centre of Birmingham. Organised by The Great Run Company, the event is part of the Great Run series of events.

Summary
Starting on Jennens Rd, close to Millennium Point and Thinktank, the route passes Selfridges and the Bullring Shopping Centre before heading out along the Pershore Rd to the furthest turn point at Edgbaston Cricket Ground where the route takes in a lap of the stadium. The first 6km is generally flat, allowing plenty of time to warm up the legs in preparation for the slightly more challenging uphill section between 7km and 8km as the route heads back towards the city centre. The final flat and fast section is topped off with a downhill finish into Broad Street.

Having crossed the finish line participants will be able to relax and meet up with friends and family in the event village in Centenary Square.
