About the adidas Manchester Marathon
Take part in the UK's second largest marathon. Starting at the Trafford Arch, you'll run 26.2 miles through the city centre and Greater Manchester and enjoy the incredible Mancunian support throughout the course.
How to sign up
We have a set number of places in the marathon. To secure one, click on the register button above. These places are £35, and we’ll ask you to raise at least £400.
You might already have a place in the marathon, which you secured and paid for yourself. If you’d like to use your place to raise money for Mind, you can! We’d love to have you on the team.
Just click on the link below to let us know, so we can send you a fundraising pack and get you involved!

"Running got me outside and gave me goals and objectives. As well as being active, running helped me live in the moment."
