It's only a matter of days until thousands of racers take to the city streets to compete in the Great Manchester Run 2023. Some 25,000 people will be getting ready to lace up their trainers and take on either the 10k or half marathon route this Sunday (21 May).
Televised by the BBC, both runs will be punctuated by live entertainment - plus the sound of thousands of supporters cheering on the city's athletes and runners.
2023 marks the 20th anniversary of the event, and those coming out to show their support can expect a glimpse of Olympic legend Sir Mo Farah, who will race in the Great Manchester Run for the final time.
The four-time gold medallist, who took part in the event last year, will retire from elite competition after the AJ Bell Great North Run in September.
