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.
CMV Action is the only UK charity offering advice and support to families affected by congenital CMV (cCMV). We are able to put families in touch with each other who may be facing similar issues or live nearby.CMV can pose serious problems to unborn babies if a woman catches it during pregnancy. In fact congenital CMV is one of the most common non-genetic cause of inner ear hearing loss and a major cause of childhood disability. Despite this, there is very little awareness of CMV and the facts are often misunderstood. 10 babies are born each day in the UK with CMV and 2 or 3 of these babies will have long-term problems – that is 1000 babies every year. We do not receive any government funding and it costs our charity £20,000 a year to help and support families affected by CMV.
