Take on this 26.2 mile challenge and join thousands of others in the UK's 2nd largest marathon!

With over 40,000 participants the Adidas Manchester Marathon is second in size only to the London Marathon! It's one of the UK's premier running events, famous for its fast, flat and friendly route.

The event has become a favourite with runners of all abilities, ranging from some of the world's greatest elite runners, to those who thought completing a marathon would never be possible. 

The Manchester Marathon starts by the iconic Old Trafford Stadium and takes you north through the city centre before heading south, down through Sale to Altrincham. You'll then head back up north before finishing on Oxford Road.

Around 43,000 are expected to take part in 2026 - could you be one of them in 2027?

Join #TeamShine now and experience why this is one of the most popular marathons out there. This is an event that you won't want to miss!
