Our club organises four social trail runs around Greater Manchester throughout summer.
Each run, we meet at Manchester Piccadilly station to catch a train, head out and go for a run! Details will be confirmed in the club WhatsApp group.
We will finish with pints at a nearby pub before heading back to Manchester. We'll aim to be back by mid-afternoon.
There will be a shorter route (~10km) and a longer route (~16km) available. Both groups will have a leader, so you don't need to worry about getting lost. We have no set pace - a nice and easy conversational pace to take in the surroundings. This is a great opportunity to enjoy a different side to the sport.
All you need to bring is some trail shoes, a train ticket and a sense of adventure!
Oh, and don't miss the train!
Catch the 10:15 from Victoria to Darwen (or the 10:22 from Salford Crescent which is close to Peel Parkrun, to arrive at Darwen station by 10:55. We'll split into two groups, one running 10K and the other running 10 miles, at a sociable pace.
Darwen is served by regular rail services from Manchester Victoria.
