Race Description
No other running race can lay claim to be as exciting, as challenging, as humorous, as exhilarating or as entertaining and all at once.
The UK Backward Run offers a fun running challenge for all ages and abilities, from first timers to experienced runners looking to try something new.
For the fitness enthusiast looking for a new exciting challenge there are 1 mile races for both men and women. (Don’t be fooled running 1 mile backwards is as hard as 6 miles forward and the course includes a killer hill).
Alternatively, for those looking to experience backward running without the pressures of competing, why not enter the ‘1 mile charity backward fun run and walk’ supporting local community charity Forever Manchester.
A medal is given to all finishers.
