(1)About Running in West Midlands on Verus
5 distances, 7 races: that is the spread Verus has found in West Midlands so far, from 2 half marathons, 2 10Ks, 1 5K, 1 marathon and 1 ultra marathon. Whatever you are training for, there is likely a start line here for it.
April is when West Midlands actually races — it is the busiest of the 5 months on the calendar here, and the other months thin out fast either side of it. A tune-up race and a goal race may land closer together than you would plan for elsewhere.
On top of the races above, there are 17 parkruns in West Midlands every Saturday morning, at no cost to enter — for most people here, that is where running actually started.
If nothing here fits your dates, the fullest calendars Verus covers elsewhere are London (39 races), Hertfordshire (30 races) and Kent (26 races).
