Manchester 24 Hour Run Against HomelessnessTeaming up with Goodgym Stockport
The Manchester 24 Hour Run Against Homelessness is a mass participation group relay run that is held over 24 hours. Runners and walkers set off together in waves to complete 5 km laps in the city centre of Manchester, all to raise money for the Greater Manchester Mayor's Charity scheme 'A Bed Every Night'.
For the past few years, GoodGym have had a group from Stockport and Trafford, and have teamed up to run the relay laps in the centre of Manchester with a whole host of running clubs from far and wide with the intention of clocking up miles to donate to the charity.
On the hour and on the half, for 24 hours, runners set off on 5km relays to keep the city moving for a whole day!
We have a Goodgym group run slot from 8pm (20:00) from Freight Island so get there a bit beforehand. The event runs from 12:00 noon on Wednesday to 12:00 Thursday so feel free to run at any time best fits you! Any pics or experiences, sign up and let me know and I can include them in any run report.
There is a JustGiving page so do donate what you can and spread the word!

This is a GoodGym group run, where we run to help a local community organisation and then run back.
New GoodGymers are welcome to GoodGym group runs - no one gets left behind. You're unlikely to be alone, hundreds of new people sign up every week.

Manchester 24 Hour Run Against HomelessnessOptions are available to run between 5km and 10km in total
Remember that we run to and from the task, so you'll only be running for half this distance in one go.
This is a standard GoodGym group run. If you can't run for more than 15mins without stopping or you're worried about any aspect of the session, contact us or see if there's a starter session coming up in your area.
