A selection of bee routes in the centre of Manchester
The next HeartMcrRun run will be on 22nd May 2021
The HeartMcrRun artwork in 2021 will also feature 22 separate GPS bees across Greater Manchester. The routes of these bees will be available from the beginning of April and every drawing submitted by the 23rd May will be included.
If you would like to be involved in the design and testing of these bees and be the first to run or walk them please join the Heart Runners group on Facebook.
The inspiration for the 2018 run. In 2021 we will be adding the bees.

Why we make the the #HeartMcrRun artwork:
"On 22nd of May, the anniversary of the Manchester Arena Bombing, we remember the victims and celebrate our city and it's response to the attack.
We create one of the world’s largest GPS art collaborations by combining everyone's GPS track into one huge image.
In 2021 we hope to include drawings of 22 bees around Manchester in the final artwork."

HeartMcrRun Artworks from Previous Years
The event couldn’t take place in 2020 due to Covid restrictions so we created a HeartNHS collage instead.
The 2019 HeartMcrRur artwork. Around 25 people joined us, each line on the image is a different runner’s GPS track.
