Event overview

The Stockport Trail Half Marathon takes place on Sunday 22 February 2026 along the Middlewood Way and the Macclesfield Canal near Wood Lane, Marple, Stockport (postcode SK6 7RE). The race is organised by Crazy Legs Events and follows a trail route with Race HQ located close to Wood Lane Car Park where registration, parking and toilets are provided. The event uses chip timing and numbers and timing chips are issued on the day. There is a final, non-competitive wave for runners who prefer to run rather than race.

Prizes are awarded to the first three overall male and female finishers, age-group winners in five-year bands from age 40, and team prizes for male and female teams (three to count).
