Bournemouth Half Marathon Route
About the Bournemouth Half Marathon Route
The Bournemouth Half Marathon route starts at Hengitsbury Head and offers spectacular views of the coastline as runners make their way towards Boscombe Pier.
Participants then head to the end of Boscombe Pier and back, before running alongside the beaches to Bournemouth Pier.
After taking in the sights of Bournemouth Pier, runners then make a dash for the finish line on Bournemouth Pier Approach.
Why support Teenage Cancer Trust
We create world class cancer services for young people in the UK, providing life-changing care and support so young people don’t have to face cancer alone.
Every day, seven young people aged 13-24 hear the words “you have cancer”. They will each need specialised nursing care and support to get them through the toughest times they may have faced.
We’re the only UK charity dedicated to meeting this vital need. By choosing to run for Teenage Cancer Trust, you can help us to reach every young person facing cancer and make a huge difference.
So you know we’re the real deal, these are our registered charity details: 1062559 (England & Wales), SC039757 (Scotland).
