You'd struggle to find a flatter marathon in the North West than Blackpool. The Promenade runs for miles along the Irish Sea, long enough and flat enough that marathon mileage stacks up quickly. When the wind picks up though, 26.2 miles into a headwind can turn a fast day into a slow one. Stanley Park sits inland with a bit more shelter, and Marton Mere is the quieter option if you'd rather be away from the crowds altogether. Not sure you're ready for 26.2? half marathons in Blackpool are a good way to find out.
Have a look through the listings below and pick something that fits where you're at. On a settled day, the flat ground here is about as fair a marathon course as you'll find on this side of the country.
