The course:\u00a0<\/strong>the 13.1-mile route of The Big Half and the New Balance Big Relay starts on The Highway by Tower Bridge and finishes beside the Cutty Sark. The route passes through the four London boroughs of Tower Hamlets, Southwark, Lewisham and Greenwich \u2013 taking in Canary Wharf, Wapping, Tower Bridge, Rotherhithe and Deptford along the way \u2013 before finishing at the iconic sailing ship.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The Big Mile:<\/strong> <\/span>a free mass participation event held on the same finishing stretch as The Big Half. The route is only a mile long, making it the perfect event for first-time runners or walkers, families with children and anyone looking to get more active. It\u2019s also accessible to wheelchair users. The Big Mile starts on Haddo Street in Greenwich town centre and heads out towards Deptford. It then doubles back through Greenwich to the finish line next to the Cutty Sark.<\/span><\/p>\n

The New Balance Big Relay:<\/strong> <\/span>a team event that takes place on the same 13.1-mile course as The Big Half, with the route divided into four legs of around 5km each. It\u2019s ideal for participants of mixed abilities or anyone who isn\u2019t quite ready to complete the full half marathon distance alone.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
