Manchester to Liverpool Ultra

About this event

This 80-kilometre urban ultra traces the Trans-Pennine Trail from Manchester's Old Trafford stadium to Liverpool, following the Manchester Ship Canal and River Mersey through northwest England's industrial heartland. The relatively flat, fast course attracts runners chasing personal bests, though the full ultra distance and 14-hour cutoff mean it's best suited to those with solid marathon experience. Six well-stocked checkpoints break up the journey between these two historic cities, and live GPS tracking allows supporters to follow progress throughout the day. The route offers a unique perspective on the industrial heritage that links Manchester and Liverpool.
