There will be 8 water stations conveniently located along the course to keep you refreshed.

HIGH5 Energy Gel Aqua will only be available at Drink Stations 3, 5 and 7, so please plan ahead and remember to bring additional hydration and nutrition based on your individual needs. Remember, use what you have been training with! Gels on course will be supplement to your own.

Please Note:

Each station will have toilets to use. There will also be dedicated drop zones following each drink station to dispose of your bottles and gel wrappers. Please help us to keep Manchester’s streets clean by using the bins and drop zones provided. If you need to carry your bottle/wrapper past the drop zones, please hold onto them until you get past the next drink station/finish line to dispose of your litter.

Water Bottles

• In each drop zone there will be 8 large bins with target signs attached please ensure you aim your bottles at the target signs/bins provided as we can only recycle bottles that are in the bins.
• Please ensure you drain any remaining water from the bottle prior to disposing of your bottle into the large bins provided in these drop zones.

Gel Wrappers

• For the 2025 adidas Manchester Marathon we will be working with TerraCycle to recycle your used Gel wrappers. There will be two smaller gel disposal bins after each water station please only drop gels into these bins and refrain from throwing the wrappers on the ground or in the larger bins for bottles so that we can make sure your wrappers can be recycled.
