Macclesfield Running Festival

Macclesfield Running Festival, presented by Science in Sport and RunThrough UK, is staged at Macclesfield Leisure Centre in Cheshire. It offers 5K, 10K, and Half Marathon races, all fully road-closed and run on a single loop starting from the leisure centre track and looping through the town and surrounding countryside. The event is famed for a lively atmosphere with live local bands, cheering spectators, aid stations, and the support of Macclesfield Harriers AC.

Perks include a unique themed medal, free race photos, chip-timed results, post-race goodies, and a bustling event village with food and drink, plus sustainability initiatives. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
