Location: Manchester

This 5 km route offers a flat and fast loop around the core of Manchester, beginning and ending near KPMG's offices. The course heads broadly north initially, tracing a gentle circuit that takes in some of the city's key waterways and urban landscapes.

The terrain is entirely city pavement and well-maintained towpath, making for consistently firm footing throughout.. Road shoes are perfect for the conditions, and there's plenty to see as you navigate the city streets and canalsides.
