Middlewich 5k and Fun Run

The Middlewich 5k and Family Fun Run takes place on Sunday 9 May 2027 in Middlewich. The main 5k route is mostly off road, following canals and town trails.

The course is not on closed roads and members of the public have access to sections of the route.

The event uses The Big Lock Pub for the race start and Middlewich Cricket Club for the finish, registration and on-site refreshments. Additional refreshments are available at The Big Lock. All finishers in the 5k and the family fun run receive a medal and a goody bag.
