Race Description
The Brighton Half Marathon's course is fast and flat, making it ideal for beginners and seasoned runners alike, with stunning sea views for 95% of the route. Starting on Hove Lawns on the seafront, the race heads east towards the famous Brighton Pier, then out towards Ovingdean, past the Regency architecture of Royal and Lewes Crescent, and continuing along Marine Drive and the bracing clifftops towards the Blind Veterans UK centre, before a sharp turn brings runners back west, enjoying wonderful clifftop and panoramic city views all the way to the seafront finish. Along the way runners pass Brighton Palace Pier, the Royal Pavilion, the West Pier, the British Airways i360 and Hove's colourful beach huts. The race weekend also includes Youth Races on the Saturday for runners aged 7–17, and a charity relay option covering the full distance in teams of four.
