Organiser's Description

Join us for our Run Heaton 5k, 10k & Half Marathon. This large park, just North of Manchester and home to a Grade 1 listed neoclassical 18th century house, is the perfect setting for a fun and frantic day out. Running on the paths within Heaton Park, this race is a great opportunity for a chip timed personal best.

There will be music, refreshments and a fantastic themed Heaton Park medal. Each mile is accurately marked out with distance flags and we have plenty of helpers to keep you on track and to encourage you on your way to the finish.

The race was good fun! Everyone was really friendly and supportive! The only thing is it’s very hilly! Which make the run a lot harder!
