Half marathons in the West Midlands

Series: MoRunning / The Fix Events

Start: Sutton Coldfield

Official event page confirms the date and half-marathon option: initial 1.1 km loop then four full laps. Sutton Park near the Visitor Centre, via Town Gate; mixed paths and trail. Field-scoped review 2026-10-28: The organiser explicitly publishes 2026-10-30 as the online entry closing date. No precise time is supplied; the date-only boundary is used conservatively. Other facts retain their earlier verification dates.

Sources checked 14 September 2026. Entry availability can change; check with the organiser.

Event venue: approximate postcode area. MoRunning Address explicitly uses Visitor Centre entrance postcode; no Birmingham city-centre point. Bounded residual official-page location check. Existing catalogue identity and current-edition eligibility retained; no dates or general source-check timestamp changed. Postcode representative point remains approximate.
