Event Overview

The Stockport Trail Half Marathon takes place along the Middlewood Way and Macclesfield Canal. The event is now in its 12th year.

Event Details

The race headquarters, registration, parking, and toilets are located at the Wood Lane Car Park on the Middlewood Way, close to the start. Food and drink are available near the start/finish area. The start/finish is by the Middlewood Way car park on Wood Lane in Marple, Stockport.

The race uses chip timing, with numbers and timing chips provided on the day. The start is staggered to relieve congestion and begins at 09:30. A special "Dave Wave" is the last wave to set off, open to anyone who prefers a less competitive start.

Course & Cut-off

The event has a participant limit of 500. There is no official cut-off time, but runners expecting to take longer than 3 hours 15 minutes are asked to inform the organizers before race day for planning purposes.

Prizes & Awards

Prizes are awarded for the first three overall male and female finishers, age group winners in 5-year bands from age 40, and team prizes (male/female, three to count).
