A Tour Through Birmingham’s Best
The event took participants on a carefully curated journey through four beloved local establishments. Starting at Hotel Du Vin, runners received their distinctive red BullRun t-shirts, courtesy of Speed One Sports, who generously handled the design, printing, and donation of the event merchandise.
The second venue was The Jam House, and we snacked on crisps and chocolate en route. We weren’t the only ones handing out treats – BullRun sponsor React Energy were also sharing some of their branded merchandise! React Energy specialises in air conditioning systems alongside solar and renewable energy solutions.
The Rolling Mill served as the third stop, where participants enjoyed drinks while mingling and forming new connections, supported by primary sponsor Debrett’s, renowned for their expertise in British culture, social advancement, and corporate finance.
The tour concluded at Rose Villa Tavern, where attendees enjoyed a satisfying meal featuring hog roast and vegetarian options provided by Outback Hog Roasts. Our final sponsor, TAG Accountants, brought their expertise in taxation, business advisory services, and chartered accounting to support the event.
