There are several options for parking this year. Please see our dedicated page relating to parking by clicking here.

Please see Street Map of Wilmslow which shows the railway station, the main town centre bus stop at Bank Square and the race start at Kings Road. Allow ten to fifteen minutes to walk to the start.

You should arrive at least one hour before the start and earlier if you can. Most of the 4,000+ runners arrive between 8.30-9.15am resulting in them getting stuck in traffic congestion. If you can arrive before 8.00am you will ‘beat the rush’ and experience little to no traffic congestion and you will be able to get one of the best parking spaces. You will arrive at the start line more relaxed and have a better chance of a good race.
