In March. Had a half marathon booked but I’m never going to get to the required fitness level and the thought of it has me dreading running ever again. So I’m going to cancel and go away.

Any recommendations welcome!

Countries are literally on fire right now due to climate change. Maybe not fly abroad.

I am probably going to fly from Bristol but can make it to London if needed. I’m not really sure what I’m after to be honest - city break or some sun

Seville or Malaga for best chance of sun, flights probably cheaper to Malaga. Or fly into one and out of the other and travel on train/bus between the two, 2 nights in each.

Have a look at BA holidays via their 'Holiday finder' option. See what tickles your fancy. Mallorca is lovely in March.

Look at where you can fly/train to with minimum hassle/decent flight times.
Spain or Portugal for a chance of spring sunshine, Seville if you can get there easily.

Tenerife because it is really cheap when you are there. You won’t really get any sightseeing or anything through so if that’s what you want then maybe get on the train to Paris?
