This race is Britain's premier 10km run and is so popular that last year the ballot entries were filled within six days of the opening.
Don't miss out on this amazing run, which starts and finishes in Manchester city centre and passes sights such as the Old Trafford Stadium. We have guaranteed entry places and would love you to join Team RNIB.
Already have a place?
If you have secured a place through the race organisers' ballot, we'd love you to join Team RNIB. You can register to run for us online.
You will have access to all the same benefits as our guaranteed entry runners but you will not have a sponsorship target. We only have a limited amount of guaranteed places available, so we really appreciate any sponsorship money raised by people with their own places.

What would you lose from your life if you lost your sight?
When you lose your sight you lose more than your ability to see.
Every day, almost 100 people in the UK will start to lose their sight. RNIB gives people who have lost their sight vital support to help them find their lives again. Right now RNIB can only reach one in three of the people who need our help most. Join Team RNIB and help us reach them all.
Not for you?
