The 2026 edition of the BnM Tullamore Harriers Half Marathon was run off on its traditional date, the last Saturday in August, which this year fell on August 29th. And what a day it proved to be.
The club proudly welcomed more than 2,000 people through its gates over the course of the morning, creating a wonderful atmosphere that never wavered.
With almost 1,200 athletes crossing the finish line, the 2026 BnM Tullamore Harriers Half Marathon once again demonstrated just how far the event has come since its inaugural staging in 2013.
