Important Finish Line Information
We highly recommend meeting loved ones away from the finish area.

You can meet with your finisher in the Event Village inside the Lancashire Cricket Club, however we recommend checking out ‘Where to Meet Up After the #MCRHalf’ for great alternative options and ideas.
