Those who participate in the 5K and either the marathon or half marathon on Sunday will complete the Challenge and earn a bonus third medal. The races features scenic views of Liverpool’s stunning docks, rich architecture, spectacular museums and historic commercial districts.Ī 5K kicks off the weekend on Saturday at Albert Dock giving runners the opportunity to register for the Remix Challenge. The marathon and half marathon will start and finish by the Albert Dock, one of the most visited attractions in the UK and a World Heritage Site. Last year’s event brought record breaking numbers to Liverpool with 16,000 registrants and a total economic impact of about ₤7.26 million. The musically themed race concludes with a finish festival and headline concert outside of Echo Arena to celebrate the day’s achievements. The Rock ‘n’ Roll Liverpool Marathon is known for putting local bands and live entertainment along the course to encourage runners as they make their way to the finish line. The popular running event is set to take part in the 50 Summers of Love celebration, embracing the music and culture of 1967.
