British Athletics Championships 2025: Schedule, start times and how to watch on TV


The British Athletics Championships 2025 take place in Birmingham this weekend with Team GB hopefuls hoping to book their seat on the plane to Tokyo.

With the World Championships later on in September, athletes will also have a chance to chase a standard after this weekend.

Olympic 800m champion Keely Hodgkinson is still working her way back from injury and misses the championships, meaning Georgia Hunter Bell is the favourite over two laps as she decides which event to run in Tokyo, with the potential for an audacious double after winning a superb bronze in Paris last summer.

While Jake Wightman has been forced to pull out through sickness, leaving his place on the team in jeopardy, and Josh Kerr, as defending world champion from Budapest, will run the 5,000m at British Championships.

Hereโ€™s the schedule and start times over the two-day event:
