Great Manchester Run
18 May 2008
Join Breast Cancer Care in May and run Britain's most popular 10 kilometre race. A great course, fabulous entertainment and the encouraging cheers of Manchester have marked this out as one of the world's fastest growing runs.
Starting and finishing in the City centre the first kilometre of the route takes you past Bridgewater Hall, G-Mex, the old Hacienda building and Deansgate Lock before joining up with Chester Road and Bridgewater Way for the clear run out to Trafford and the Quays.
