Macclesfield Running Festival

The Macclesfield Running Festival, presented by Science in Sport, takes place in Macclesfield, UK, featuring 5K, 10K, and half marathon distances. The event offers fully road-closed courses that start and finish at Macclesfield Leisure Centre, with routes showcasing the historic town and scenic Cheshire countryside on a professionally marked single loop. Participants enjoy chip-timed results, unique themed medals, free official photos, and post-race goodies.

The festival atmosphere is enhanced by live local band performances, aid stations, and enthusiastic support from the Macclesfield Harriers AC. Optional technical T-shirts with event branding are available for purchase, making this a well-organized and community-supported running event.
