It is easily the biggest half marathon in the region, with the 2025 event welcoming over 28,000 participants. The challenge aims to truly represent all the wonderful people of Manchester, and celebrate our achievements.
Since its launch in 2016 the Manchester Half has received rave reviews from participants, thanks to its professional delivery, flat route and amazing support from crowds around the course.

Thank you to the crew at the charity for saving my life, with their quick thinking and performance – in what must have been a very high-pressure situation. I was written off all the way but the decisions they made have given me more time with my family and children.
