The Big Half (London) returned on 7 September 2025 with a packed, feel-good edition through Tower Bridge,
Canary Wharf and Greenwich. A record 17,193 finishers enjoyed cool, dry conditions and a buzzing finish by the Cutty Sark.
The elite races were all-British at the front: Jack Rowe claimed his third Big Half title, while
Jess Warner-Judd powered away late to win the women’s race. Crowds, community cheer zones and a clean,
medal-worthy design made it a photogenic day across London.
