The course which is
hosted at Macclesfield Leisure Centre is described as “A challenging and rewarding
route through the leafy back roads of East Cheshire” and despite the heat on Sunday all participants certainly gave it 100%.
Everybody Sport and Recreation are proud to congratulate three Lifeguards from Macclesfield Leisure Centre who took part in the Half Marathon, Jacob Roberts who came 8th place with a time of 01:23:19, Scott Wilson who is a pace runner completed in 01:29:56 and Alannah Birtwistle who completed in 01:59:25.
