The majority of the course is run on tarmac and pavement and so road shoes are recommended. There are however approx 1.5 mile of gravel roads which may require some better grip if the weather takes a turn for the worse. Please use your judgment closer to race day when choosing your footwear.
You must be 18yrs old on race day.

This year’s charity is the Stockport Foodbank. The Foodbank provides three days’ nutritionally balanced emergency food and support to local people who are referred to them in crisis from 6 centres around Stockport. They are part of a nationwide network of foodbanks, supported by The Trussell Trust, working to combat poverty and hunger across the UK. You can help by bringing along a tin of food, e.g. fish, puddings, UHT milk, pasta, etc. on race day.
We encourage spectators and there is plenty of Parkland to explore whilst you are waiting for the runners to return. There are even points where you can cut through from the park and watch the runners on the course at various points. Alternatively bring deck chairs, rugs, cameras & a smile. Why not bring your club tent or gazebo along – there is plenty of room. There will be hot/cold drinks and food available, along with various snacks from the tuck shop.
We will have photographers around the course and in the start/finish arena. The photographs will be available on various websites following the event, we publish the links as soon as they become available
We don’t think anyone in our community should have to face going
