Overview

The Bath Skyline Races take runners through the beautiful landscapes surrounding Bath, combining solid stone paths, woodland trails and open grass meadows with some puddles and muddy sections. The routes are largely flat with a couple of little rises and falls, all comprehensively marked and well marshalled. Set at the University of Bath, the event offers 5km and 10km distances plus a 500m kids' race, along with canicross options, and is recognised as one of the Top 50 races in the country by Runners World.
