The current weather predictions are saying it will be a nice day on Sunday although cooler so you might want to wear the right gear for the race such as a pair of running tights.

Wearing the right trainers is most important for any running event more so in a full and half marathon as its a long way to be running, wearing the right socks should not be overlooked making sure they are seamless.

We wish everyone running all the best and you will be supported well by the Trafford crowds cheering everyone on.
