The routes follow a professionally marked and measured single loop from Macclesfield Leisure Centre’s athletics track, taking in the sights of the town and the surrounding countryside roads.
This picturesque race is made even more popular by live performances from local bands, aid stations and communities of cheering spectators including the support of Macclesfield Harriers AC.
