Manchester Marathon

The adidas Manchester Marathon is one of the UK’s premier running events, famous for its fast, flat and friendly route.

We pride ourselves on welcoming all to take on our 26.2 mile challenge, from some superb elite runners, to those who thought completing a marathon would never be possible. Many regular runners find this the ideal event to get a personal best time, whilst everybody finds the incredible Mancunian support throughout the course unforgettable.

The next event will take place on Sunday 16th April 2023.

There's still time to secure your entry and support Covid Aid at the same time.

Why fundraise for Covid Aid?

Covid Aid is the UK’s leading national charity dedicated to supporting all those significantly affected by Covid-19. We are here for people throughout the pandemic and beyond on issues including Long Covid, grief and bereavement, and pandemic-related trauma.

There are now more than two million people in the UK with Long Covid, and hundreds of thousands of families dealing with bereavement due to Covid-19 – with thousands more being affected every day.

In our first year we supported more than 100,000 people – your donation will help us grow our awards-nominated Support Community and provide more courses, expert webinars, counselling, listening support, resource packs, and loads more help for those in urgent need.

If you have any questions about taking part in any of the events please get in touch.

Covid Aid is reliant on YOUR donations to provide support to those hit by Long Covid, grief and bereavement, and other Covid-related issues
