WELCOME TO 2019 ASICS MANCHESTE MAATHON If you are feeling adventurous why not get out on the course to support all the runners? Don t forget your runners need support on the course, not just at the finish line. For ease of travel and due to road closures for the event, we recommend that spectators use the metrolink as the easiest way to travel around the course. EVENT VILLAGES Based at Lancashire Cricket Ground for friends and family, the hangout will feature a stage and big screen where spectators can watch live coverage of the event. A DJ will be on set, along with a choir and prize giving. Our title partner ASICS will be in the area along with three different food stalls and a bar, making this a great spot to relax whilst waiting for friends and loved ones taking part in the event. Please note there is a strict capacity policy at this venue, and entry will be on a first come first served basis.
