Join us for the inaugural Warrington Running Festival. Run a Half Marathon, 10k or 5k in and around Warrington Town Centre. Starting and finishing at the Town Hall’s iconic Golden Gates, this new event has a road closed, a flat and fast route that will provide the perfect opportunity to push yourself to a chip timed, personal best.
The Warrington Running Festival is a brand new event for Warrington. We at RunThrough Events have been delivering successful and highly regarded running events for 7 years; including the London Half Marathon, Cheshire 10k, Run Tatton, Run Aintree, Blackburn 10k, Leicestershire Half, Hertfordshire Half, Hampton Court Palace Half Marathon and many more, with over 120,000 runners running a RunThrough event in 2019 alone.
We would like to respectfully make clear that neither this event nor any person within the RunThrough Events organising team or structure has any association with the previously staged English Half Marathon, its organisers or company owners in any way.
CICRA is dedicated to creating a wider understanding of Crohn's Disease and Ulcerative Colitis, collectively known as inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), particularly as it affects children and young adults. We provide support and understanding for children and young people and their families. We raise funds to sponsor Research Fellowships and PhD studentships and give grants to support approved medical and scientific research projects in major gastroenterological centres nationwide. Investment in research has led to new treatments and has helped to train many of the specialists who today treat children throughout the UK.
