Aintree Racecourse
We are excited to be returning to the the world famous Aintree Racecourse, best known for annually holding the world-famous Grand National steeplechase.
Each Mile will be accurately marked out and we have plenty of helpers to keep you quite literally on track and encourage you on your way to that chequered flag finish. Included in your entry fee is a themed medal, water and post race goodies. Come and enjoy the day with us; we hope to see you there!
The race involves laps around the circuit, the course is flat and quick. There will be 1 lap for the 5k, 2 laps for the 10k and 4 laps for the Half Marathon.
MACS is a small charity making a big impact. In the UK, around 100 babies a year are born with these conditions and increasing numbers of people are seeking our support.
With YOUR help we can transform their lives. Your funds will help MACS to:
support families emotionally during the tough times
provide a platform for people to support each other and share experiences
share information, resources and essential equipment
organise social and sporting activities to build self-confidence and independence
fund research into genetic causes of the MACS conditions
