Running with Manchester Frontrunners @ Sugden Sports Centre, Manchester

Starting at 7pm so arrive by 6.45pm if you're changing beforehand. 15-20 runners attend each week. Two routes, one run March - late September (Summer Route) and the other October to March (Winter Route). Both are as 'off road' as possible, but given we live in the middle of Manchester, this isn't exactly guaranteed! Generally, there will be someone around to support new members. We make no charge for our weekly run, all we ask is that you join the club by paying the annual membership if you want to run with us regularly.

There are changing and shower facilities at the Sports Centre. You'll need 20p for the lockers (remember to get a token first!) but use of the showers/change rooms is free.

MORE IMPORTANTLY, after the run, we will all head to our favourite local eatery, Kro2 (www.kro.co.uk/two) for drinks and food Please feel free to make this a regular event in your diary (even if it's just for the pub bit!!). www.manchesterfrontrunners.org
