ATW Bedford Half Marathon & 10k

Runners seeking to set or better their Personal Best times are invited to the Bedford Half Marathon and 10K, an ideal venue for those aiming to push their limits. The race courses take runners along the picturesque Bedford Embankment and alongside the tranquil river Ouse, offering a serene backdrop with views of lush greenery.
For the half marathon distance, participants will embark on two laps around the scenic route before extending slightly into Priory Park, encircling Priory Lake once more to complete the 21.1km (13.1 mile) course accurately marked at every kilometer and mile interval respectively for each race category. The terrain is entirely flat with less than 50 meters of elevation change over the shorter distance and just slightly more across the half marathon, making it a runner’s paradise.
The event ensures an enjoyable atmosphere from start to finish. As runners warm up on traffic-free tarmac or firm paths, they are greeted by personal trainers ready to help them prepare for their race day performance. After crossing the finish line under the cheers of spectators and friends, participants will be welcomed back with a professional commentator’s commentary and quality caterers providing refreshments.
This event isn’t just about running; it’s an experience that caters to every aspect of the runner's journey, from preparation through celebration.
The Bedford Half Marathon and 10K offers runners the perfect blend of scenic beauty and competitive atmosphere for a memorable race day.
