The Mersey Tunnel 10K is back once again in 2026 and will take place on Sunday 12th April.

The race starts just yards from the emergency Tunnel exit road on Bevington Bush on the Liverpool side of the River Mersey and drops directly down on to the main approach road to deliver a fast descent into the Kingsway (Wallasey) Tunnel.

Opened by Queen Elizabeth II in 1971, the Wallasey Tunnel is still affectionately known locally as the 'new Tunnel' and it will take runners on a journey of just over 3K before exiting on the Wirral side of the river. Runners then make their way along the Dock Road and the Seacombe Ferry terminal at the half way point.

The second half of the race takes runners along the promenade overlooking the River Mersey showing off the impressive Liverpool skyline at it's best.

Baggage buses transfer your belongings to the finish area once the race begins so all you have to do is get yourself to the start line. It's great opportunity to run through the Tunnel and experience a feat of modern engineering as you make your way from Liverpool to New Brighton with 1000s of other runners.
